AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Gulliver Connect

A mobility programme through work placements for young and up-coming
artists, art managers and cultural operators in Europe.

The Central European Foundation (Bratislava), Kulturkontakt (Austria)
and The Felix Meritis Foundation (Amsterdam) are proud to present a
new call for application for work placements in 2008.

Thanks to a large network of cultural organisations throughout Europe
and beyond, Gulliver Connect offers hands-on work experience. It's
unique ability is to use such an extensive range of host
organisations to match the individual talents of young people. And it
enables the host organisations to find valuable working partners in
future.

The work placements will lead to new professional skills and
establish new forms of international co-operation. Both the visitor
and the host organisation benefit from each other's working
practices. They share information, experiences and ideas, and
establish far reaching professional contacts.

By creating a dynamic network Gulliver Connect adds a new dimension
to the social, artistic and cultural development of Europe and
beyond - a stepping stone for the future co-operation in the arts.
