Open to: young and up-coming artists, art managers and cultural operators
Deadline: 10/07/2010
The Central European Foundation (CEF) in cooperation with The Felix Meritis Foundation (Amsterdam) are announcing a mobility programme through work placements for young and up-coming artists, art managers and cultural operators in Europe under a joint programme Gulliver Connect.
The work placements (September 1 and December 15, 2010) will lead to new professional skills and establish new forms of international co-operation. Both the visitor and the host organisation benefit from exposure to each other’s working practices. They share information, experiences and ideas, and establish far-reaching professional contacts.
Thanks to a large network of cultural organisations throughout Europe and beyond, Gulliver Connect offers hands-on work experience. It makes a unique contribution by providing an extensive range of host organisations to match the individual talents of young people.
Eligibility
* candidates from the Czech Republic, Hungary, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia, former Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Romania who wish to apply as a visitor or a host organisation.
* candidates with 2-3 years working experience in the field of performing arts, visual arts, (new) media, arts management and film as well as project co-ordination, art development or management at a local/regional level in their country and who want to add an international dimension to their work.
