From 2013 to 2015, Live DMA coordinated the project Lighthouses confounded by the Lifelong Learing Programme – Leonardo Da Vinci Partnerships. The professional training programme involved six Live DMA members (ACCES, Court-Circuit, Clubcircuit, Dansk Live, Fedelima, and VNPF).
Though six thematic seminars of good practice exchange, Live DMA united bookers, artistic directors and communication managers from five European countries in order to identify the skills and abilities needed in artistic professions on a European scale. As result, Lighthouses produced a quality label that helps to identify the different professions’ qualifications. This report is based on ground experience and reflects the professional habits from the music professionals that participated at Lighthouses.
