# 1 Community Building: Uniting the Art Scene
While in some European countries interest groups and associations have already represented the interests of specific art scenes, such as the independent performing arts sector, for many years on the national level, other countries‘ art scenes still face an uphill battle when it comes to uniting artists and voicing their concerns and demands as one. Since the effectiveness of solidary structures and common goals in policy negotiations has been proven, this event will thus focus on how some artists and cultural workers have scrambled to establish structures in their regions in order to bring together artists to join those conversations. Artists at grassroots level, representatives from newly created arts associations and those working despite lack of funding will talk about the challenges, demands and progress they have seen in their countries.
