At a time when creativity and technology are increasingly intertwined, ArtSpark Consultants, in collaboration with Metavallon, is proud to present a unique side event as part of this year’s Panathēnea Festival.
“Tech & Creativity: Converging or Diverging?” will take place at Nitra Gallery on Thursday, May 8th, from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM, and invites us to reflect on one of today’s most relevant questions:
