parkinprogress is a nomadic mobility programme gathering together emerging artists and professionals from the creative and cultural world, who work on the different steps of creation, production, diffusion of a project in which transdisciplinary experience is developed.

parkinprogress moves around 6 different places in 6 different countries. At every very stop of this itinerary, the artists and young professionals from the creative world take hold of a park or a woody urban zone to create a strolling promenade , « PARKINPROGRESS », nourished by different artistic propositions to share with the public.

This creation nourishes itself from new proposals established on the encounter with artists and professionals from the hosting country, at every stage of the project.

parkinprogress is the first step of a far-reaching project, which is meant to link the main European countries’ big cities, to make emerge a vast network of artists and cultural actors able to work together on transdiciplinary projects at a European scale.
