*This online version of the Artistic Encounter will run parallel to the sessions being run ‘on the ground’ in Serbia - however, they have different start times, end times, and durations. The encounters being held in Serbia will not be live-streamed or recorded. This online version of the Artistic Encounter is available to all of those participating in the event online and to those in Serbia who wish to log in via their own devices.*
If you wish to join the first in-person Artistic Encounter, please book a ticket for "ASSITEJ Artistic Encounter in Serbia - A":

The two Artistic Encounters are a centrepiece of the ASSITEJ Artistic Gathering 2023 (Serbia) with ASSITEJ members and delegates coming together in a community setting to discuss, experiment, and plan for the future of our field. Facilitated by the Jon Dafydd-Kidd from the ASSITEJ International Executive Committee, these sessions are open to all professional delegates and we warmly encourage those who are new to the world of ASSITEJ to participate. Whilst the sessions are primarily led in English, automated translation of ZOOM captions available for online attendees. In this first session, we will begin with some icebreakers and ‘getting to know you’ activities before exploring the conference theme of Turning Points together through various interactive activities. In the second half of the Artistic Encounter, we will hear from the researchers leading 6 different projects on behalf of ASSITEJ International before opening the floor to all participants to have their say on the how the research is unfolding.
Sobre los artistas
Jon trained as a musician in Scotland, United Kingdom. Upon returning to Wales, he transitioned into theatre. He has always focused on inclusion and creating opportunities for those who benefit from creative experiences but do not have the opportunity. He is Head of Participation for the Wales-based Hijinx Theatre, developing opportunities for learning-disabled and neurodivergent young people as audiences and performers. This includes the award-winning programme for Hijinx actors role-playing medical school exams and developing a new piece for young audiences with professional learning-disabled performers. Since 2016, he has worked with organisations in Lesotho and a group of learning-disabled performers from Wales to explore the aspirations of disabled (and non-disabled) children and young people and to challenge society’s views of them. This project contributed heavily to winning an International Award from The Stage in the United Kingdom. For Music Theatre Wales, he is consulting with young Welsh audiences. Engaging through participatory practice, young people are challenging the work created for them and will deliver recommendations for the company’s future work.
