Opening of cultural institutions: Programme and audience
30. March 2023 ∙ 10:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. ∙ online
Culture is not an absolute, unchangeable value, but is always related to a society and a certain moment in time. Social change is therefore always accompanied by new demands and expectations of cultural offerings in order to remain relevant to a city’s population and to address current issues. We therefore ask: Which range of cultural offerings are suitable for attracting new audiences to cultural institutions? To what extent can specific event and educational formats such as festivals and other events provide low-threshold access to art and culture? In addition, we will discuss how digital programmes and educational proposals can contribute to opening up cultural institutions and how cultural institutions can establish and expand contacts and relationships among the various communities of Frankfurt’s urban society.
