ESSENCE

The morning session was fully dedicated to the discussion about the project and the concert. During this session participants shared their thoughts and experience and their future visions about the possible projects that may have been born during the 9 days of the project.

This day was fully dedicated to the final preparations for the final ESSENCE Concept project event — concert of the group BARAKA.

During the morning session the project participants were working in the teams as usual in order to deal with technical issues that are arising during any cultural event organisation and before the ESSENCE Concept concert.

During the first session of the day participants had a short introduction about the financial part of cultural event organization. After that they got a practical task of developing a financial strategy for some nominal event.

The first session of the day was a meeting with the organizers of the local cultural event festival Give & Get. Meeting was held outside of LAMPA space and in more informal atmosphere. During this session participants could get the inside information about large scale event organization. As the festival is not a commercial event, participants were able to find out about how to attract volunteers to work at the festival, to get practical experiences that are connected with social and cultural event organization. Also this was another possibility to exchange contacts and experience with local experienced representatives working in the field of cultural event organization.

At the first session of the day, participants have received vital information about press releases, presented by the course trainer Sergey Bremer who as a journalist himself has a huge experience in this field.

After tuning to the informal wave, participants have introduced others to their vision of cultural events in their home countries and were talking about local event organization specifics.
