At the heart of the upcoming Nordic-Baltic Gathering and NBAN-pitching events at Bibu lies a mission far beyond mere performance presentations.
These gatherings serve as vital platforms for fostering connections—connections between artists, between countries, and between cultures. By facilitating collaboration and dialogue, the NBAN endeavors to amplify the voices of Nordic-Baltic performing artists on the global stage.
As the festival unfolds, attendees are invited to immerse themselves in a vibrant tapestry of creativity, where each participating artist brings their unique perspective and artistic vision to the forefront. Through their diverse backgrounds, experiences, and artistic mediums, these performers collectively contribute to the rich and dynamic landscape of the performing arts.
Through the participation in these events, these artists not only showcase their talent but also contribute to the cultural exchange and collaboration that lies at the heart of the Nordic-Baltic ASSITEJ Network. As we come together to celebrate creativity without borders, let us forge connections that transcend geographical boundaries and celebrate the rich diversity of the performing arts landscape.
We highly recommend everyone to take a look at their work and what they are representing and do not hesitate to get in touch with them or their national ASSITEJ centers for more information.
