Future DiverCities – Creativity in an Urban Context
is an initiative of 10 cultural partners in Europe and Canada funded by Creative Europe (European Union programme for the cultural and creative sectors).
Future DiverCities will aim at exploring new models of creation and dissemination that support, for the future, cultural diversity and alternative ecosystems. The project will centre around the artistic domains of music, digital art and urban art, and it deeply believes in and aims to reinforce social bonds through the arts.
In Kuopio, the project is run by ANTI Festival.
