Makers, Business & Arts

The Makers, Business & Arts project builds bridges between creative makers, art, business and tourism. The programme develops offers for overarching collaboration, promotes the development of creative locations and is committed to the expansion of creative tourism. To this end, it works in the three sub-projects Tourism:creative, Makerhubs and Economy:creative.

The project is being organised by the Landesverband der Kultur- und Kreativwirtschaft Sachsen e. V. with funding from the European Capital of Culture Chemnitz 2025 gGmbH.
