CULTURE FOR ALL – The Danube as a Cultural Bridge
The 10th Danube Conference on Culture at the Museum of the Vojvodina in Novi Sad between 23 and 25 April 2023 brought together creatives, experts and decision-makers from across the Danube Region to connect the diverse cultural sector of the region. The aim was to discuss open and accessible cultural work. Against this background, the motto of the conference was "CULTURE FOR ALL - The Danube as a Cultural Bridge".
