Be a Host

CREA has been designed as a flexible and creative format, open to anyone who wishes to promote and carry forward its principles by organising their own edition. 

Every CREA iteration should aim at welcoming and making accessible the event for all participants and stakeholders involved. 

If an organizer external to the Founding Team wishes to host a CREA edition (or adopt CREA’s format to their event), they should consider the following Hosting Guidelines:

• Contact the CREA founders via crea.theworkshop@gmail.com

• Look for funding opportunities that can support your event

• Participants of a CREA event may include artists, researchers, students, curators, writers, activists, or other experts working at the intersection of artistic and academic knowledge

• Formats may include workshops, performances, talks, installations, field trips, meals, or other experimental gatherings

• Contributors can share unfinished work, discuss speculative ideas, or open up questions relevant to art

• Plan ahead tangible outputs from your CREA event

• Ensure to document the event through audio and/or visual records, reflections, texts, or other relevant material to enrich the CREA archive 

• Dedicate a co-hosting team with shared responsibilities for curating and mediating discussions among participants

The co-hosting team's role is to:

• Ensure diversity of voices and practices;

• Build local relationships and context-responsive programming;

• Document the iteration to be added to the CREA’s archives.
