The UNESCO Creative Cities Network, launched in 2004, is comprised of 180 cities from five continents, reunited with the aim of promoting cooperation among cities that consider creativity as an essential driver of their urban development. Working together, sharing experiences and best practices, launching initiatives, participating and enhancing our local cultural and historical heritage are the key goals of the Network.
Every city of the Network stands out in a particular creative field: Crafts & Folk Art, Design, Film, Gastronomy, Literature, Music, and Media Arts. In 2013, the city of Fabriano was designated ‘Creative City for Crafts & Folk Art’ for its century-long craftsmanship in the production of paper.
The most important event organised by the UNESCO Creative Cities Network is the Annual Conference: from June 10th to 15th, 2019 representatives and delegated from 180 creative cities all over the world met in the city of Fabriano, located in the Marche region, to review what has been done so far and to share their opinions on missions, objectives, and future strategies concerning the UNESCO Network with the aim of reinforcing the Network and launching new cooperative
projects.
The Host City of the 2020 Annual Conference will be the City of Santos: a UNESCO Creative City of Film from Brazil.
Fabriano has welcomed the UNESCO Secretary and a total of more than 500 distinguished guests, including delegates, representatives of institutions and renowned people belonging to the fields of art and culture, from all over the world, to hold a high-level debate on the future of cities in the 21st century.
The City of Fabriano transformed itself into a large open-air workshop on creativity: the conference will coincide with cultural events, discussions, seminars, meetings as well as opportunities to share opinions and ideas inside the Pavilions of Creativity, set up in the heart of the city centre, and in the main cities of the Marche region.
