“The beginning is the most important part of the work.” (Plato)

The end of February 2020 saw the beginning of something new, as the first activities of the ARTECH project, co-financed by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union, took

off.

The Kick-off Meeting took place in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, on the 26th of February 2020, while the 27th and 28th of the same month were reserved for the first of a series of workshops organised within the project. These events aim at the capacity building of cultural operators, the facilitation of international cooperation, and the development of new audiences for the built heritage, by identifying new methods and strategies.
