Urban Thresholds

Artists explore the sounds of the cities and ask their political, social, cultural signifactions and impacts.

In recent decades, cities have undergone dramatic social, economic and cultural changes, triggering debates about the design and the use of urban space.  For one week you will involve yourself with other practitioners in an artistic research process on topics of urban development, gentrification, living together, social segregation and displacement.

In different formations, framed by artistic facilitators, we are going to find out how people living in Graz (and elsewhere) experience those changes and how they would create urban spaces if they were asked to bring in their ideas.

The School of Participation is supported by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union and led by Walk the Plank.  With international partners Plovdiv 2019, Bulgaria; Novi Sad 2021; Serbia, uniT Graz, Austria; Kaunas 2022, Lithuania; Coventry 2021, UK; and associate partners Limerick City & County Council, Ireland; aRe, Yerevan, Armenia; Tartu 2024, Estonia and Veszprem, Hungary. The School of Participation in Graz is co-funded by Graz Kultur, Land Steiermark Kultur, Europa, Sport und Bundesministerium für Kunst, Kultur, öffentlicher Dienst und Sport.
