During the project weeks, you can work continuously on a project. In addition to regular project weeks, there are exchanges focused on (interdisciplinary) collaboration, such as an ArtEZ-wide project and the exchange with Comic and Illustration Design. There are also travel weeks, usually to Berlin and Madrid, during which you create new work and connect with writing courses or literary organisations across Europe.
During the Arnhem literature festival Nieuwe Types, Creative Writing plays a major role. You will present your graduation project together with fellow students. You will also organise programme items and workshops.
The Creative Writing programme works closely with production house De Nieuwe Oost. For one thing, students organise events at Theater aan de Rijn. They also contribute to programme items at the Wintertuinfestival in Nijmegen.
Part of the programme is learning how to make programmes. You will practise this during your studies. You will develop and organise programme items for different festivals in the Netherlands (including non-literary festivals) and, for example, for ArtEZ finals.
