In this edition of the International Clinic, early- and mid-career practitioners looking to expand their practice in Europe can find out what European collaboration entails, including where to start and how to find opportunities. They will also learn how embassies and funds can support their efforts. Through conversations with curators, creatives, and cultural advisors, we will explore the opportunities, experiences and challenges of working in a European context, while sharing practical hands-on advice and top tips for effective collaboration.
