The New European Bauhaus Festival
Starting on 9 June, the first edition of The New European Bauhaus Festival will bring together exhibitions, artistic performances, conferences, seminars and other gatherings combining a live onsite event in Brussels with online activities and side events across the EU and beyond, including the Western Balkans. Featuring debates, great speakers, artistic performances, exhibitions and networking opportunities, the festival is a chance for experts, organisations and families to debate and design future ways of living together.
The festival’s main themes are beauty, sustainability and inclusiveness and it aims to build connections, linking the worlds of research, science and technology to those of education and civil engagement, and art, culture and architecture.
The New European Bauhaus is a creative and interdisciplinary initiative that connects the European Green Deal to our living spaces and experiences. It calls on all of us to imagine and build together a sustainable and inclusive future that is beautiful for our eyes, minds, and souls.
Launched by President von der Leyen in her 2020 State of the Union address, the New European Bauhaus was co-designed together with thousands of people and organisations across Europe and beyond. In September 2021, the initiative moved from co-design to delivery with a Commission Communication setting out policy actions and funding to make the initiative a reality.
