AKTES (Pocket Academy for Arts)

The project supports a. childrens' participation in community life and development (active citizenship), b. small municipalities with innovative participatory tools for sustainable cultural development and c. artists to travel and connect with small communities of the Aegean Sea.

AKTES use artistic experimentation as a tool in order for the children to collaborate with the artist and co-create an artistic work that is related to a strategic area of development of each island (for example tourism, culture, environment, etc).
