Kaunas Artists' House invites you to the "Performance Art Weekend" on October 16-19, 2025, presenting the latest performances by artists from Lithuania and abroad in different spaces across the city. The four-day festival program will not only offer a possibility to watch live performances, but also to participate in practical workshops.

The underlying theme of the “Performance Art Weekend” program is the tribune as a place to publicly express one’s opinion. The festival program will raise questions about the public representation of opinion and the hierarchy between opinions: who is given the right to speak and who decides? Which stories remain on the margins, and why? How can we create a space where those stories come to light?
