We are excited to to announce that this year's Political Art Days (PADs) will take place on the second weekend of September at AZ Conni in Dresden.
The PADs are a public education and art festival for Global Learning that has taken place annually since 2016, each year under a different theme. This year's focus: "The World We Move – Movement of People and Goods in Times of Climate Crisis".
Date:
11- 13 September 2026
Address:
AZ Conni
Rudolf-Leonhard-Straße 39
01097 Dresden
The World We Move – Movement of People and Goods in Times of Climate Crisis
Everything is in motion. Yet not everyone moves with the same freedom.
This year, the PADs will explore the social and environmental aspects of global patterns of movement - of goods, tourism, and migration in times of climate crisis. Contributors and participants are invited to look past the labels and borders. How do the routes of global trade shape the paths of human migration? In an era of multiple crises, how can we reimagine the way we move, and are moved by, one another?
To be a success, the PADs need your ideas! Be it a performance, a workshop, an installation, a (short) film, a discussion, a game - all formats are welcome!
For more details on how to contribute, check out our Open Call.

The PADs run on volunteer power: from set-up to welcoming guests to helping things run smoothly during the weekend. If you'd like to lend a hand, we'd love to have you.
