Friendship Ambassadors
Foundation finalizes peace-through-the-arts program for Balkan youth
Students from throughout the Balkans prepare for a third session of
the UNESCO-approved Balkan Youth Reconciliation Seminar Series (BYRSS)
in Timisoara, Romania, August 5 - 12, 2001.
The program uses
artistic, cultural exchange as a means of cross-border reconciliation.
At the close of
this session, BYRSS participants will present a site-specific al fresco
performance entitled Roadworks, which will be directed by members of
the Vanaver Caravan and Bond Street Theatre Coalition.
Roadworks is taken
from the idea of people gathering to repair the roads, in this case
the 'cultural roads' that can unite us all. Portions will be broadcast
worldwide via the internet.
