WALC LAB: Artists and Communities in Action

Grand Tour

Join us for the WALC Lab: Art & Community in Motion, an interactive, playful, and creative space for artists and local community members and/or representatives to connect, share practices, and explore new ways to collaborate. Whether you attended our first WALC seminar or are joining us for the first time, you’re invited to be part of this dynamic exchange! 

This WALC Lab focuses on building relationships between community members and artists, sparking creative dialogue, and brainstorming solutions to real-world challenges through the lens of walking art.

Event Highlights

  • Getting to Know Each Other
  • Interactive Games & Icebreakers
  • Collaborative Discussions
  • Mapping Ideas

We’ll gather on Zoom to play, discuss, and map out ideas that connect the dots between walking and art, while imagining new collaborations between artists and local communities. Whether you’ve walked with us before, or are joining for the first time, we’re eager to have you.

We’ll start off with a few playful games (icebreakers, if you will) before shifting into deeper, thoughtful discussions. Together, we’ll brainstorm ways walking can inspire change in local communities—yours included.

It’s going to be a relaxed, interactive gathering. A chance to meet like-minded people, share stories, and map out new projects that might just change how we walk through our world.

Who’s this for?

Artists looking to collaborate on community-centered projects, representatives of communities worldwide, collectives, and organizations interested in using art and walking to inspire social change.


Walking Arts & Local Communities (WALC) is an artistic cooperation project, co-funded by the European Union, Creative Europe, starting in January 2024 for four years. With seven partners from five countries, WALC establishes an International Center for Artistic Research and Practice of Walking Arts, in Prespa, Greece, at the border with Albania and North Macedonia, backed up by an online counterpart in the format of a digital platform for walking arts.

WALC builds on the previous work of hundreds of artists and researchers already practicing Walking Arts as a collaborative medium, and having met at the significant previous walking arts events and encounters in Greece, Portugal, Spain, France, Belgium, and during online activities at walk · listen · create.

We acknowledge the support of the EU Creative Europe Cooperation grant program in the framework of the European project WALC (Walking Arts and Local Community).

to diddle, diddling around

Wandering, getting side tracked, following the breeze, stalking a butterfly, wondering a lot, being completely in the transient moment.
