Over the past few weeks, the Nomad School of Arts selection team has been working hard to review, assess and feedback on the 25 (!!!) project applications submitted.

The projects were assessed on criteria such as relevance, need, community building and impact, connection to education, reasonableness, sustainability and innovation. Also taken into account were the conditions of the Leading Fund (including focus on sustainability of experiments), the predefined outlines, the objectives of the project and the temporary (!) available budget.

From these, the following 16 projects were approved (in whole or in part). Some were approved with a “GO, provided…” — in which additional conditions or a change in budget/size of the project were formulated by the selection committee:

The Living Moving Dining Carpet (by Trees de Backere en Sebastian Kulbaka),
