As the smARTplaces project comes to a close, we realised there are many stories to share about experiments, audiences, collaboration, failures and successes. For our third and final conference – SMARTPLACES – hosted by the Dortmunder U on March 5th 2020, we’re telling these stories by shining a spotlight on our colleagues from across the world.

smARTplaces is a visionary, long-term European audience development project aiming to revolutionize the way culture and art can be perceived and consumed using digital technology and new forms of cultural mediation. The project network comprises eight cultural institutions and two universities from eight countries.
