Where does art and activism meet?

The anti-workshop is for young people who would like to explore historical events in Narva (such as the Kreenholm strike in 1888, the bombing of Narva in 1944, the removal of the Narva tank in 2022, etc.) from personal perspectives. How can these events be linked to art, politics, and societal issues? The workshop will be conducted by the artist Kylm tee.

The workshop will focus on the various connections between activism and art. It will be practical and creative, incorporating various art styles to create one’s own messages, gain new knowledge, and discover personal connections with Narva’s history. After a communal dinner, a walk will be taken through historical places and favorite spots.
