SPARK! is
a series of 5 events in 5 different locations throughout Europe that
promote a new type of creativity emphasising the increasing role
of culture in the socio-economic development of communities and municipalities.
The project will end in 2004 with a conference and a book on the
results of the activities.
SPARK! uses culture
as an economic factor for urban regeneration and to demonstrate
the power of new design services as a factor in social integration
and contemporary citizenship.
SPARK! is an initiative
of Cumulus,
a network of 40 Art and Design Universities and Colleges representing
the whole of Europe in collaboration with ‘Doors
of Perception’ as consultant.
SPARK! is funded by EU’s
Culture2000 – programme.
For further information on SPARK!, please contact the project
coordinator at the University of Art and Design in Helsinki.
