In the concert program, poet Kirils Ēcis, Liepāja Poetry Slam winner Linda Skranda, poet and beatmaker Edvards Kuks, and a group of musicians from the Liepāja Symphony Orchestra will guide the audience through this shift in perspective via poetry, music, and electronic sounds.

Linda Skranda (Ulāne) writes: “When I think about young people, I’ve recently become fascinated by mistakes and failure. As a youth worker, I’m exploring something I call the ‘art of failing’ (through a clowning approach, which is actually a very serious endeavor). Do I allow myself to fail? Do I allow young people to make mistakes? Just this morning, I was drinking coffee and reading Rodari’s 'The Grammar of Fantasy', where he talks about how making mistakes is not (just) learning, but creation.”

Target audience for the concert: Students in grades 10–12.
