European Festivals Association publishes festival brochure 2010/2011
What’s more, in 2010 and 2011, EFA implements a broad array of activities in Europe and across the world, ranging from networking and training opportunities to publications projects: a first meeting between the associations of festivals in Europe and Asia in Shanghai/China in September 2010 within the framework of the World Expo; the EFA Conference in Varna/Bulgaria in April 2011; the third edition of the European Atelier for Young Festival Managers in Izmir/Turkey from 23-30 October 2011; the publication of EFA BOOKS 5, the fifth volume of the EFA BOOKS series; and joint projects with the European House for Culture in Brussels – to name but a few activities.
Through its initiatives, the Association raises awareness of the vital role played by festivals in today’s world. EFA President Darko Brlek underlines: “In 2012, the European Festivals Association celebrates its 60th anniversary – 60 years of bold initiatives that aim to open doors to Europe and the world! Since its foundation in 1952, EFA has grown into an open and dynamic network. Based in Brussels and Ghent, close to where international cultural policy is made, EFA’s role is to support festivals in their important mission.”
An eBrochure as well as all up-to-date information about festivals and their programmes, the European Festivals Association and its activities are available on the EFA website at www.efa-aef.eu or at www.Open-The-Door.eu.
