This time in Kokkola Eleni talks with museum hostess Monica Witting-Kangasniemi and youth worker David Carlsson, who work at the locations that took part in DANCE ALL YEAR LONG.
In January DAYL KLA started in the K.H. Renlund's museum. In February the program continued in Youth Center Villa Elba, with a community dance project integrated in an international youth exchange.
How did the local collaboration go? How did dance as an art form become part of the location? What kind of personal partnerships did the visit of a dance artist create?
