SUMMARY:Summer of MINO - For The Culture
DESCRIPTION:Summer Program 2026MINO is excited to announce the open call for FOR THE CULTURE: an interdisciplinary summer program taking place from 24 July until 23 August 2026 in Antwerp. \nFor the culture comes from Afro-American cultural movements and hip-hop communities. It meant showing up for something bigger than yourself\, building collective identity\, visibility and cultural continuity. \nToday\, for the culture is everywhere. Across cities\, communities\, platforms and borders. Artists\, collectives and diasporic communities are shaping culture on their own terms – through art\, music\, fashion\, language\, rituals\, digital platforms and collective practices. Creating spaces to tell stories\, share knowledge and build community. Not because they are asked to\, but because they feel the urgency to. On their own terms. \nAt MINO\, we believe that this is one of the most urgent cultural conversations of our time. Who gets to create culture\, validate it\, claim it. Who shapes the narratives\, the spaces\, the infrastructure. These aren’t abstract questions\, they are what artists\, collectives\, community builders and communities are questioning and answering everyday. This is the space we work in. \nFOR THE CULTURE brings together artists\, makers and collectives around these questions through a multidisciplinary summer programme – exhibition\, public interventions\, screenings\, listening sessions\, conversations and participatory formats. Not to define what culture is\, but to make space for what is already being built. \nFOR THE CULTURE is an open\, evolving and experimental programme. Just like culture itself\, it will be shaped by the people\, practices and conversations that become part of it. \nWe see this open call as a collaboration and an invitation to think together about the questions at the heart of FOR THE CULTURE. We are interested in the fluidity of culture: how it moves\, changes\, travels and takes on new meanings across communities and contexts. \nWhether your contribution takes the form of an exhibition\, screening\, performance\, gathering\, workshop\, publication\, conversation\, intervention or something that does not fit neatly within existing labels\, we would love to hear from you. \nWe are not looking for finished answers. We are looking for practices\, ideas and perspectives that help us think through and respond to these questions together. \nWHAT TO EXPECTSelected participants become part of an experimental and collaborative playground where ideas\, practices and projects can be tested\, shared and developed. \nAt MINO\, we value process as much as outcome. We are not a traditional institution or presentation platform\, but a space for experimentation\, exchange\, trial and error. We welcome work-in-progress\, unfinished ideas and practices that are still evolving. \nFOR THE CULTURE is built on reciprocity\, generosity and collective learning. Participants are invited not only to share their work\, but also to contribute to the conversations\, exchanges and connections that emerge throughout the programme.
