About this Event
In this final session in our Spring series on “Creating Europe through…” our panel of experts will focus on European-level cultural policy and its impact on local and global cultural economy. Taking the European Commission’s Creative Europe program as a starting point--including initiatives such as the European Capitals of Culture--the conversation will explore intersections of policy-making, cultural diplomacy, cultural trade, tourism, and implications for European identity and solidarity. Audience participation is encouraged.
Panelists:
Ivan Šarar - City of Rijeka - 2020 European Capital of Culture
Claske Vos - University of Amsterdam
Philip Schlesinger - University of Glasgow
Randall Halle - University of Pittsburgh
Moderated by Jae-Jae Spoon - University of Pittsburgh

Audience participation is encouraged.
