Discover dance, ask questions, participate yourself – the festival is a place for encounters and exchange. The educational programme invites school classes, teachers, children, young people and families to experience dance in all its diversity. Workshops and discussion rounds around the performances bring audiences and artists together. This creates a space where dance can not only be watched, but also shared, questioned and co-created.
The festival team is happy to answer any questions about the programme and workshops at: info@explore-dance.de or 0331 – 2800314.
