From March 7-9, in Boston, United States, Laura Garbštienė will present the residency program “Verpėjos” and her artistic practice at the international conference “TransCultural Exchange’s 2025 International Conference on Opportunities in the Arts: Avenues for Daring.”

2025 Conference Overview

Once again, TransCultural Exchange invites artists and those who support artists’ work to come together for our 8th International Conference on Opportunities in the Arts’ Avenues for Daring. Join us from March 7-9, 2025, for this three-day extravaganza, connecting artists around the globe, down the block and across the nation. During this unique global gathering, we will consider our era’s pressing need for diversity, political equity, and climate and social justice. We will do so, while also celebrating the arts’ ability to provide joy, respite, and common ground for dialog. Both here and abroad. We will reach beyond cultural, political and social divides, showcasing programs designed to engage artists with other cultures and disciplines to provide them with the tools, means and inspiration to, in turn, present the wonders and realities of the world to us. We will explore innovative strategies, technologies and working methods for artists to best express today’s challenges. With roundtable discussions, panels, small convenings, workshops, PechaKucha pitches, portfolio reviews, receptions, networking activities, and tours of local attractions, we will promote resources for sharing and new possibilities of caring.
