Annual report meeting

TURN Meetings is an open forum for sharing TURN and exchanging ideas and opinions. At the meetings, participating artists and those involved in TURN projects, including members of facilities supporting people with disabilities, communities, and other locations where interaction is carried out, meet and discuss TURN from their respective points of view.
For TURN Meeting No. 4, the last of this fiscal year, we’ll look back on TURN in 2017 and hold a discussion centering on two themes: “Global spread”, a theme and direction for TURN going forward which emerged from new activities like the overseas development project TURN in BIENALSUR, and “Interaction that begins with handicraft”. In addition, the supervisor of TURN, Katsuhiko Hibino, will speak about the TURN perspective.

*Sign language and speech-to-text support available.
