Initiatives and projects, which encourage a large audience to explore and examine creative works and ideas, become more and more vital to help culture to grow and advance. Based on latest research results and innovative use of communication channels, museums and their partners have started already with the development of new mediation formats to open culture and the arts for new audience groups. The panel discussion in Berlin is set to provide insights into the work at Hamburger Bahnhof – Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart, research in the fields of cultural mediation and cultural management as well as into the use of digital communication. This exchange of knowhow presents guests with an interesting outlook on the further evolution of cultural participation and cultural education.<p>Among the speakers is Benita von Maltzahn, Director Cultural Engagement at Volkswagen Group and founder of the symposium: “As much as a many other German companies, we are convinced that a strong society is built upon a powerful culture. We work closely with cultural institutions and inventors of art projects to create programs that are easy accessible for all people and attract many generations. Our efforts paved the way for the Volkswagen Group ART4ALL initiative that we have launched five years ago and that we together with our partners continuously enhance. I am grateful that this symposiums allows us to listen to first-hand inputs referring cultural work, science and communication, which might sets frames for concepts that can further improve cultural participation for the largest possible audience.” </p><p>The panel discussion “Engage.
