BPART!

Be Part! is a two-year international project involving Iceland, the Czech Republic, Mexico, Italy, Canada and the United States. It uses the artistic process as a tool to support the development of civil society, foster a sense of belonging and increase the visibility of marginalized groups.

The fundamental pillar of Be Part! is a bilateral collaboration between artists and organizations from the Czech Republic and Iceland, with professional artists from another country invited into each phase of the cycle: Brno — Foco alAire (Mexico), Reykjavík — Zerogrammi (Italy), Prague — Michèle Steinwald & 44 Arte produttiva (USA/Canada).

For the year 2023, Be Part! collaborates with Zerogrammi and its choreographic project Elegìa delle cose perdute in order to work with refugee and asylum-seeking communities in Iceland.
