Commons to Coop is the theme of the Jubilee Summer School 2024. During a week of workshops, walks and public conversations at Kunsthal Gent, participants study local histories of cooperative organisation, and work with the new tool for artistic research and countermapping Eavatea. Commons to Coop – 1 to 5 July 2024 – was hosted by Kunsthal Gent, Lange Steenstraat 14, 9000 Ghent. It was the first instalment of the Archipelago of Artistic Practices program.
