Launch of the ESR Reader
The ESR Reader will be launched at the Lidice Art Collection – Lidice Memorial on Wednesday, 24 February 2027, at 4 pm CET, as the closing part of the ESR Closing Conference. Entry is free and open to everyone.
🎤 Miloslav Vorlíček, Anna Némethné Molnár and Srdjana Cvijetić
The ESR Reader collects what the partners and residents learnt from two years of ESR. It sets out the methods we used to run inclusive, fully funded residencies, so that other institutions, municipalities and cultural organisations can adapt them. It also presents the residents' projects, essays by mentors and invited writers.
The three partners will present the Reader together, joined by some of the contributors. The Reader will be available as a free PDF on this website, in a text-only version for screen readers.
🗣️ The event is held in English, with interpretation into Czech, Hungarian and Croatian.
♿ Step-free access to the venue, accessible toilets, an induction loop, and a quiet room. If you need support to attend, write to hello@solidarityresidency.eu by 17 February 2027.
