#7 Conference / Meeting OFF OFF 2024
Saturday 29th of June 2024, starting from 1pm
@ Meeting 1 pm / 13.00 o’clock Vevey SBB Train Station
Please inscript! Link below!
Thank you very much for agreeing to take part in off-off Day #7 on Saturday 29.06.2024. We’ll be delighted to welcome guests from many parts of the French-speaking world, and hopefully beyond. The welcome will be at the Vevey train station from 1pm.
Here’s a link to all the info about the visit so far, and the possibility of reserving a place at the closing dinner (approx. 7pm). Registration is open until Sunday June 23.
At the end of the page, you’ll see a section for Vevey’s participating areas – this is purely to facilitate logistics. This will enable us to communicate more effectively live on the day (for example, to provide information about the route). You can join the walking group at any time, depending on your availability.
→ https://cloud.indianavevey.ch/apps/forms/s/eF9BB5mRdgofcLTfYJTBoYmA
also available here: https://indianavevey.ch/bio in the “News” section.
We’d like to devote 20 minutes to each location (including arrival and departure). Some projects can be presented for shorter periods too, especially those involving outdoor showcases or studio spaces. The main objective is to make a presentation:
→ the genesis of your project, its annual operation/rhythm [in 2-3 minutes];
→ the current exhibition [3 min];
→ let people visit a little bit [10 min] and answer questions.
And perhaps if you’d like to offer specific documentation, we can set up a display unit at Indiana at the end (catalogs, flyers, stickers, whatever you like).
See you soon!

OFFSPACE COOKBOOK
Open call for recipes from offspace catering culture
Accepting submissions until 01.04.2023
We invite curatorial teams from Swiss independent art spaces to share their favourite recipes from their event catering to create a print and digital publication from the contributions we receive. The offspace cookbook is a culinary mapping of the national offspace scene and a practical resource for spaces searching for recipes to feed their artists and audiences with limited budgets and basic equipment.
Format: DIN A4, 300 dpi, pdf or jpg. Drawn, typed or scanned. All languages welcome.
Please send your recipe via e-mail: espace.libre.bienne@gmail.com with the subject: offspace cookbook. Don’t forget to sign with the name of your space!
Or send us a hardcopy via post to: espace libre, Faubourg du lac 73, 2502 Biel/Bienne
All participating spaces will receive a printed and PDF copy of the cookbook. A launch event will be held in Autumn 2023, details to be confirmed!
All the best,
Beth Dillon & Vera Trachsel
