Art Mediation and Arts Promotion
In our Art Mediation and Arts Promotion programs, we make use of multifaceted approaches in our attempts to connect the arts audience with the artists and creators taking part in TOKAS programs, their works and creative activities. These programs include talks and workshops aimed at sharing the complex richness of art in enjoyable ways under our concept “To connect art to the public,” as well as use of our archives and online services, our e-mail Newsletter and the publication of our Annual Report, among other activities.
