Never. Stop. Learning.

Inclusive meeting and convention center of the Gold Kraemer Foundation



Article 30 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities calls for the equal participation of all people in cultural life. People with disabilities should be allowed to use and develop their creative, artistic potential and participate equally in culture, recreation, leisure and sports activities. Barriers to access to cultural events, offers and training opportunities should be reduced.

In many cases, however, these barriers - far beyond the spatial accessibility - exist in everyday life. Artists with intellectual disabilities do not have the same opportunities to be professionally trained; Museums often show their art under the stamp "Outsider Art". The thresholds for attending concerts, exhibitions or other offers in established art venues are often high and sometimes insurmountable - especially in old age and with mobility restrictions. On the trade day, possibilities and perspectives of overcoming these inhibitions are to be pointed out.

Therefore, we have put together a varied program with top-class guests:

09.45 | Registration and welcome coffee

10.15 | Opening and welcome

10.30 | Keynote speech: perceiving the world differently - creative power and artistic expressiveness of people with mental or intellectual disabilities (Jutta Mattern)

10.45 | Art and culture as a profession

11.30 | Panel discussion I

11.45 | Participation through art and culture

12.30 | Panel discussion II

12.45 | lunch break

13.30 | Workshops - art and culture in concrete!

15.00 | Plenary: Culture of, with and for people with disabilities

Moderation: Rainer Schmidt (Speaker, pastor & cabaret artist)

All further information can be found here in the flyer.

The participation fee is EUR 45.00.
