TURN FES

Three Days to Experience and Enjoy Brand New Encounters

As well as a conference with a diverse array of guests, the first TURN FES will feature an exhibition of works and performances produced as a result of the Exchange Program, in which 13 artists are meeting and working with people with disabilities and young people facing various challenges in their lives. This three-day festival will offer the chance for individuals, with all their different backgrounds and customs, to enjoy, deepen, and share encounters.
