banner-ready - CopyApril 23rd, 15.00-17.00

This panel will gather different professionals that approach young audiences with varying goals and expectations. We will take a brief look at the pedagogical implications of targeting young groups of audiences and expose some of the most persistent assumptions about working with young audiences. We will also touch on selected sociological observations about youth inclusion. The session will also present some concrete approaches to development of young audiences and analyze concrete examples of curating with and for the youth, artists entering the educational system and youth-focused artistic projects.

Panelists of the round table include: Robert Kroflič (Faculty of Arts, Slovenia), Urška Breznik (independent cultural operator, Slovenia), Silvia Botirolli (Santarcangelo Festival, Italy), Jurij Krpan (Kapelica Gallery, Slovenia) and John Hunter (Non Zero One, United Kingdom).
