Vilma Pitrinaitė, who was a resident dancer and choreographer in Joniškis Culture Center in September, claims that artistic residencies in the regions are purposeful and necessary, and recalls the successful practice of other countries: “Such a model of residencies in regions operates in France, where the cultural system is decentralized In this way, the costs of both the use of the premises and the living expenses of the creative group are reduced. Everyone was happy, thanked me for coming to share the experience. I was told that the children and youngsters have never had a chance to work with a dance professional, that it will be very useful for them. All the lessons went really well, I felt needed ”, says V. Pitrinaitė, who received an invitation to come back and present her new solo performance” It’s not your dream ” in Joniskis.
