STAGE Talk / „ ‘Volunteering in art and culture - uplifting or exhausting?“
Our social life is based on the pillar of volunteering - the diversity in art and culture is also supported by numerous volunteers. In Vorarlberg's cultural scene, it is not uncommon for volunteers to look back on five decades of activity, with younger generations following suit and taking an active part in cultural life. IG Kultur Vorarlberg invites four young and experienced players to share their personal motivations, unique anecdotes and special challenges. Together with the STAGE audience, they will discuss what keeps the cultural scene alive and what is important now and in the future. Cemanur Turan from the Motif Theatre association, Valentina Jussel from W*ORT Lustenau, Leon Boch from Galerie am Lindenplatz and Bernhard Amann from the Transmitter association will talk about their experiences. Moderation: Mirjam Steinbock
