The Utopian Nights series provides a platform to re-imagine collectively around four contemporary themes: displacement, borders, encampment and global commons. The catalyst of the series is the notion of Utopia. Here Utopia is essentially a democratic space – it is a platform for discussion and a participatory project in which everyone can debate, challenge and be challenged equally.
Utopian Nights: Inside the Border, is a weeklong event which will take place in Howard Gardens from 30 July to 5 August. It is an opportunity to engage with the different artistic works.
A number of activities: ​original ​films under the trees of the gardens, holding ​a passionate ​debate and musical performances and introducing the Fotokabinett des Imaginaires and the Utopian Photo Studio where you can have you portrait taken in Utopia, the​ original art performance Geography of Lives by artist Alberto Favaro in the ​old ​streets Mdina.
The week will culminate in a joyful social gathering, providing poets, musicians, thinkers and the general public with an opportunity to take part in a common experience.
