"Open Sounds" is a Youth Exchange project undertaken within 1.1 of Youth in Action programme. The project will take place in European Meeting Centre in Nasutow (near Lublin - Poland) from 28th June till 7th July 2011. The exchange brings together 27 young people who love music and have some music experience or interests and are 16-20 years old. There will be groups of young people from Greece, France, Spain and Poland.
The main subject of the project is art and this is mainly music but there are planned plastic and theatre activities too - decoupage technique, mandala and origami. The participants will have workshops with professional musicians and actress and the most important thing is that they are going to create and record common song, shoot video and prepare workshops with children from an orphanage. They will create "Open Album" - e-book about participants and exchange too.
We believe that after the project, participants will be more open-minded and confident and they will believe in their own capacities. Other aims of the project are development of abilities and interests, getting to know new people and their culture, learning new things, and promotion of tolerance.
Young people will emit their videoclip and they we will create promoting poster to this which will contain information about exchange and photos. Finally they will show effects of their work in the internet
Project is co-funded by the programme "Youth in Action"
