INFO
LIFT is a new kind of event for media, arts and culture.
The world is not finished. Right now, it needs joint action, creativity and new stories.
LIFT is about the power of cooperation, playful experimentation, diversity and the ability to both challenge and be challenged. LIFT is also about culture, shared experiences and encounters.
LIFT provides opportunities and possibilities: meeting those engaged in creative arts and media, hearing domestic and international speakers as well as testing new ideas and finding new views and experiences.
LIFT invites participants to break the barriers between arts and media, encouraging them to find new partners and create networks.
LIFT is an open forum for anyone with a keen interest in media and culture, be it professional or otherwise. LIFT challenges and inspires to cross borders. Join us! Together we can build a better, more meaningful future for all of us.
