The Living Arts City Workshop is the collaboration between Parsons The New School for Design, Royal University of Fine Arts, SA SA Bassac, Urban Voice Cambodia and Lumhor Journal. This workshop continues an international exchange that came about with Season of Cambodia, an arts festival in New York City presented by Cambodia Living Arts. The workshop will bring together a wider array of urban actors that are not usually part of developing and designing the city. Artists, students, cultural institutions and other people who interested in contributing to ongoing discussions about the city where they are living are invited. It will be an interactive dialogue that addresses the problems and potentials of the city and then we will find solutions and ideas for the city in the future.
