MATCH Capacity Building Workshop – Marseille: 21–23 January 2026, La Friche la Belle de Mai, Marseille, France
The Capacity Building Workshop (CBW) in Marseille marks the next chapter of the MATCH programme, hosted by La Friche la Belle de Mai, a pioneering cultural ecosystem and former tobacco factory that has become a leading European model for urban and social transformation. Following the exchanges in Nicosia, the workshop explores the intersections of artistic practice, ecological redirection, and civic engagement within Marseille’s creative landscape.
Focused on “Territories in Transition”, the CBW brings together partners, artists, and researchers to engage with local initiatives such as LaboFriche, Couvent Levat, and the Mucem’s Migration Garden. Through site visits and panels with experts from the “Marseille 2030 Climate Objective” and local collectives, the programme examines how cultural venues can lead environmental responsibility and urban resilience, reaffirming the role of art and culture as catalysts for ecological transition and community-led change. 🌱✨
