OPEN CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

A network of twelve European partners is launching Future Laboratory, a pilot project of research residencies on the topic of social inclusion throughout Europe. Over the course of 30 months, 15 emerging artists selected through an international open call launched on the website www.futurelaboratory.eu (deadline: May 20th 2022), will participate in three research residencies in three different cities. Each host institution will offer the artists the opportunity to connect with local resources including research organisations, foundations, artists and members of their communities. During the research residencies, the artists will develop a concept idea for a production. This idea will be based on the most urgent issues they have identified around the larger theme of social inclusion and fed by new and missing narratives they feel need to be told on our stages tomorrow.

WHO ARE WE?

Twelve European performing arts institutions with a strong international component are working collaboratively in an exciting new partnership to discover the European narratives of tomorrow. Determined to better integrate marginalised, isolated and disengaged communities in their activities both on and off stage and acutely aware of the impact the pandemic has had on the next generation, the partners have set up an international research project to support the career and international development of emerging artists.
