About

SAND Festival is an international festival of performing arts for a young audience. One of the SAND Festival’s goals is to foster the creation and sharing of knowledge, skills and experiences, thus contributing to bringing performing arts for young people forwards. A given thematic starting point for the festival programme gives us a unique opportunity to combine artistic experience with in-depth professional seminars on chosen topics. We have invited several artists and experts who work with the theme in different ways. During the course of the festival, the audience will be offered unique insight into artistic methods and professional discussions. Artists, researchers and students alike will get the opportunity to explore the thematics during practical workshops and seminars.
