Producers can now submit applications to present touring exhibitions and showcase their projects at the ‘What’s new in touring exhibitions’ and ‘Project Showcase’ sessions during the Ecsite Online Conference, taking place between 9-11 June. The Conference will take place in the afternoons, from 12.00-18.00 (CET), giving our friends and colleagues in North and South America the opportunity to also take part.
Submit your pitch for “What’s new in touring exhibitions”

There will be a special session dedicated to touring exhibitions pitches. In each session, speakers will have between two and four minutes each to present their new travelling exhibitions.

The Conference Programme Committee will be reviewing all pitches for exhibition presentations and process all the applications in April. Session slots will be given on a first-come-first-served basis, with priority given to Ecsite members, most recent exhibitions and to those that have never been presented at another Ecsite Conference. Please not that only one slot per organisation is permitted.

To submit a pitch, this form can be completed with the following information:

  • Touring exhibition title
  • Start date of the tour
  • If the exhibition was pitched at an Ecsite Conference before, in what year was it presented?
  • Short description of the exhibition(s)
  • Username of the presenter

There will also be a slot dedicated to non-profit, collaborative projects. These projects must involve a minimum of three different institutions, at least one of which must be an Ecsite member. Basic information on the project timeline, funding and participating institutions, as well as a summary of the concept should be provided, along with the contact details of the presenter. Results and resources available to share with Conference participants are a plus.

This session is first-come, first-served and slots can be claimed by completing this form with the following information:

  • Title of the project
  • Project partners: There is no need to list all partners but at least three of them, including one Ecsite member should be listed.
