Opening Operations is a monthly series in 2014 that investigates the practical methods through which culture is produced.

Each month, a representative from a different Estonian culture organisation will present their activities as well as their operating budget and finances. The speaker will discuss a challenge or problem unique to their organisation, and the presentation will be followed by a group discussion. The goal is to share methodologies, open dialogues, and research creative alternatives to real-world problems involving money, labour, and collaboration. This project also seeks to democratise and demystify the act of "organising", proceeding from the belief that there is no right or wrong way to do things, and that different approaches breed more exciting and dynamic cultural forms.

This month's speaker is Triinu Aron. Triinu is the founding director of Sõltumatu Tantsu Ühendus (STÜ), which has been operating the Okasroosikese Loss (Sleeping Beauty Castle) project space in Tallinn's Old Town since 2012. Okasroosikese Loss is an open-form venue that hosts artist residencies from mutiple art backgrounds, with a focus on interdisciplinary practices.

Light snacks and refreshments will be served, and the discussion will be recorded and released afterwards online in podcast form.

Avatud Toimingud/Opening Operations is a project of Migrating Art Academies and is supported by the Estonian Ministry of Culture.
