YOUTH EXCHANGE
PALESTINE - CATALUNYA
Six young artists from Palestine come together with their contemporaries from Arsenic in Catalunya to discover how their identities connect.
The first part of the exchange took place in the mountains outside Barcelona, with Ahmed Tobasi and Marta Otin co-directing the team across ten days. Inside the rehearsal room the young artists focused on personal storytelling, whilst outside, they explored local Catalan culture and did a workshop with El Trampoli and Pere Carabet
Taking place across 2024 and 2025 the creative exchange is initiated and produced by Associació Catalana per la Pau.
