Every year, the Europeana Initiative runs the Digital Storytelling Festival. The international event encourages cultural heritage professionals, educators, creatives, and students from Europe and beyond to boost their storytelling skills and tell stories exploring culture. We hope to inspire participants to create connections between art, culture and history and the contemporary world.
A key part of the Digital Storytelling Festival is our Online Creative Residency, now in its third year, which brings students and new professionals who want to gain storytelling skills in a professional setting together with experts. Working with these experts, residency participants develop stories with cultural heritage in different digital formats.
In this event, we'll showcase last year's Online Creative Residency, have some creative fun together and launch the application process for this year. We've got new formats, new mentors and a new theme to share.
We hope you'll join us, although please note, everyone can apply for the residency - so don't worry if you can't make it to the info session. A recording will be made available of this session after the event.
