As part of E-motional Bodies & Cities, Motion Toolkit workshop took place in Riga from the 18th to the 20th February hosted by the Association of the Professional Dance Choreographers of Latvia.
This was a special two-day management training workshop designed for Latvian dance professionals and emerging arts managers, who are seeking for further professional development and are interested in strengthening their practical knowledge and creative skills in project management.
The workshop was led by two experts – Ghislaine Boddington (creative director body>data>space London) and Cosmin Manolescu (curator & director of United Experts/Gabriela Tudor Foundation, Bucharest), with an extensive experience in project management, international collaboration and co-production.
