This conference has aimed to discuss what does the expression \u201ccultural action\u201d stand for. In addition to that the purpose is to consider which meanings could this concept have in different countries.<\/p>\n<p>The expression &#8220;cultural action&#8221; originated as an umbrella term for actions taken to create a closer connection between the cultural and artistic community and the public, as part of the cultural policy developed in France during 1960&#8217;s.\u00a0Nowadays, more than 50 years later, this expression seems not to be clear anymore. The responses to CECA&#8217;s survey in 2017 showed that &#8220;cultural action&#8221; is related to non formal or informal learning, meaning learning processes not connected with school groups.<\/p>\n<p>Having that in mind and related with the ICOM theme for the International Museum Day 2018, Hyperconnected Museums: New Approaches, New Publics, CECA board suggested the following as a main theme for its 2018 Annual Conference: Museums, Education and Cultural Action: Between Old and New Meanings.<\/p>\n<p>During the Annual Conference there were discussed: Theoretical and methodological approaches to \u2018cultural action\u2019 in museums:\u00a0What does the term \u2018cultural action\u2019 refer to today?\u00a0What is the connection to \u2018education\u2019?\u00a0How do education and cultural action contribute to the mission of museums?\u00a0Which kind of cultural action does a museum implement? To\/for whom? How do museums use their spaces, collections and staff to develop cultural action? As well as:\u00a0Museum visits for individual visitors and families;\u00a0Education and cultural action for audiences and non- audiences;\u00a0Working outside the museum walls;\u00a0From visitor to user (digital audiences);\u00a0Museums and activism;\u00a0Museums as scenery for cultural activities.<\/p>\n<p>The conference was participated by more than 120 professionals of 35 countries (Italy, Germany, France, USA, Austria, Netherlands, Norway, Australia, Great Britain, Portugal, Denmark, Spain, Cyprus, Finland, China, Belgium, Greece, Canada, Northern Ireland). , Turkey, Mexico, Iran, Russia, Brazil, Argentina, South Africa, Israel, India, Qatar, Singapore, etc.), including 35 representatives of Georgian museums, as well as professors from various universities in Rome, Ulster, Murcia, Madrid, Montreal, London, Norway, Qatar, Shanghai, Amsterdam, South Texas, various Georgian universities, and lecturers of Museology MA programs.<\/p>\n<p>The conference hosted a presentation of CECA Best Practice winners and an award ceremony; Free professional workshops were held for conference participants and delegates upon pre-registration; Also opened the exhibition of artist Katie Matabeli and her creative group &#8211; &#8220;I see and create with my fingers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The CECA 2018 Conference was held in the framework of the European Year of Cultural Heritage 2018 and the Festival of Science and Innovation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Conference photo-album<\/strong>:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pg\/ICOMGeorgia\/photos\/?tab=album&amp;album_id=1874032139339224\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ICOMGeorgia\/CECA<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ceca.mini.icom.museum\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ICOM CECA<\/a>\u00a0&#8211;<em>\u00a0The Committee on Museum Education and Cultural Actions is one of ICOM&#8217;s oldest international committees, bringing together more than 1,000 members from 85 countries around the world.
