Discussion about community art

 
Community art: from viewers to makers.
Place: Globe art point, Malminkatu 5.
Time: 11.12. at 14.30–18.30

After a couple of years of Klockriketeatern's community art project Kätketty Vuosaari, we want to discuss and share tools with our colleagues about community engaged art.

Our guest for the discussion and workshop is Ditte Bjerg from danish research-based Global Stories which examines sociological and political issues by using perfomative and interactional strategies.

We address questions like how to reach and engage communities from viewers to makers? How can we work in a sustaInable way? And ultimately how to foster diversity in the field of community arts?

To participate in the discussion, please confirm and send a short description of your project with a few main challenges (or questions you would like to discuss) in your work by the 5th of December to julia.h.k.hovi@gmail.com.

Kätketty Vuosaari

Klockriketeatern examines the district of Vuosaari in 2016-17 in its community art project Kätketty Vuosaari, the hidden Vuosaari.

In its workshops for teenagers, Klockriketeatern examines through sound, writing, movement and video not only the Vuosaari area, but also ways of conducting participatory community arts. 

Kätketty Vuosaari invites local teenagers to examine their neighbourhood by means of art. The art pieces created during the workshops are then located in the area of Vuosaari, first as live installations, and then as geocaches that encourage the public to visit Vuosaari on their own and experience it through local peoples perspective. 

Kätketty Vuosaari is part of Helsinki City Culture center's Helsinki Model -project, which brings art organizations to perform community arts in different districts.
