Online festival
About the festival
When a project draws to a close, we take it seriously.
With the closing online conference, we will celebrate the epic that has taken place across Europe since 2021.
FuN!line Odyssey is a culmination of months of collaboration, creativity and dedication of the young minds brought together by the festival FuN! Future=Now! A Youth Manifesto. The remote festival offers a unique insight into the methods and techniques that brought the manifestos to life, from the conception of the ideas to the actual execution. Discussions with project leaders, mentors and young visionaries will take place live, and we will also see the final recorded artistic products: three short youth manifestos, an artistic performance and a radio play, each exploring the festival's key themes of gender, social inclusion and climate change in their own way.
The manifestos are not just documents, but resonant calls to action, created and performed by young people from three countries (Czech Republic, the Netherlands and Slovenia) during the touring events.
From the comfort of our own homes, we will navigate together through this digital landscape of several years of international creation.
About the project
With Future = NOW! A Youth Manifesto (FuN!), co-funded by the European Union through the Creative Europe Programme (Culture strand), we are working with the young generation to design a field of intersections between art and activism on issues that are at the heart of their future, their concerns. Through activism and performance art practices, we aim to redefine the forums of the 21st century, to engage audiences in individual site-specific actions and to start a debate through participatory practices.
The FuN! project calls us all together to really connect, not only at local and national level, but also transnationally and cross-sectorally. The project focuses on gender issues, the environmental crisis and social inclusion.
In short: this is a FuN way of tackling today's most exciting and dynamic social issues of the future. Youth with youth for youth. More about the project
