Unbelievable… but here we are. 💫 After two amazing years, we’ve arrived at our Closing Meeting with Next Stage Project. We spent 3 days of reflection and evaluation in Thessaloniki, hosted by the beautifully new @theatro.amalia Huge gratitude to our invited guests @lucie_ortmann and @ixchel_mendoza_hernandez for the inspiring talks and shared wisdom — and to the theatre for creating a true nest for our Next Stage family. The initiators and young creatives will continue this bond — because this was only the beginning. Stay tuned for the next stage. 🔥 The project is co-funded by the @creative.eu Programme of the European Union. #NextStageProject #NewBeginnings #Thessaloniki #AmmaliaTeatro #CulturalJourney #CreativeFuture #ClosingMeeting #CreativeEurope
