Culture is the glue of the European Union, the soft power that unites the community of the member states beyond financial and economic interests. European culture is rather diverse for its relatively small territory, and even though this can be seen as an asset, it involves many difficulties as well. This is especially relevant for players in arts management; national differences in law, funding structurescal, and artistic style are immense. The divergent views and impressions on which we will focus at the first Arts Management Student Conference (AMSC) can help us with questions and challenges in our own territories.

In addition to exchange and discussion in the group, there will be input from international keynote speakers from the academic and practical field.
The program will be announced in November and will be available for download here.
