Liepāja 2027 continues to build and strengthen international collaborations!
From September 23 to 25, Liepāja 2027 welcomes guests from Japan and the Netherlands, who represent the international network of arts organizations “Port Journeys”. The network brings together port municipalities from around the world to build relations based on cross-cultural exchange and to engage in creative community development, cultural facilities, and artists.
While shaping the Liepāja 2027 programme, an arts center in Japan invited Liepāja to join and become part of this international collaboration network. The collaboration is planned to take place during The Other Sea Festival, revealing both shared and unique stories of coastal life. These stories will bring new cultural impulses to the festival and offer a closer look at the heritage of the world’s port cities.
We are excited to see our international collaborations grow broader and stronger, opening new horizons for cultural exchange and shared creativity!
More than 500 events planned in the Liepāja 2027 programme
On Wednesday, 4 February, the fifth meeting of the Liepāja 2027 Supervisory Board took place at the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Latvia, where key issues regarding the progress, achievements and next steps of the European Capital of Culture programme were discussed.
