The workshop is divided into theoretical and practical lessons: the first ones are dedicated to ethics and sustainability of cultural production, and to the processes, themes and methods of creating an artistic event in the public space. Italian and international experiences will be presented and analyzed. Practical activities are aimed at setting up a day of presentation of the projects developed by students in groups or individually.
