Amateo

With the focus on active participation in cultural actitives, we have selected as a proposed symbol of the Network a small figure whom we call Amateo.

Amateo is a happy figure, enjoying himself or herself by taking part in arts activities and thereby enlarging his or her personal competencies as well as social contacts when learning and developing arts skills.

Active participation in cultural activities means that ordinary people are enlarging their possibilities of understanding, empathy, and expression through the work with arts.
