RE: Creativity is a 10 days long exchange for young people from 5 different EU countries, who want to learn and get new experience in the field of creative recycling, and share them in a creative way. This means we will come together for 10 days, provide workshops and many ideas for each other, we will sew, design, paint, draw, cut, tint, hammer…involve local people from the villages, share our ideas and development, and present our work for an audience. If you would like to be part of it, join to us!
Goal and purposes of the exchange
During the programme with the method of „learning by experience” you will have a chance to get familiar with new technics of how to recycle different materials.
Youngsters from all over Europe are going to bring their own attitudes and costumes and through these tools you are going to show your uniqueness to each other and to the locals. By using different materials you will have a chance to present your creativity as well.
Furthermore the aim of the project is to create opportunities for you to develop your skills for life while working with recycled materials that permeates contemporary society, namely that of communication of art. We would like to acquit you with the possibilities in creating and recall something new.
In addition to these goals, we would like to draw attention to the cultural differences that arise from regional situations; therefore the topic of the exchange will be the situation of people living on the periphery and its presentation through an exhibition.
You will also have the possibility to test your new skills in practice at the end of the exchange!
The Youth Exchange was organized by RE:Design informal group with the support of Egyesek Youth Association. Since then the informal group became a social enterprise called ReCreativity expanding their activities way beyond.
