About
Telescope Beirut is a one-week initiative within the Creative Europe project, SHIFT. It offers a unique lens to explore, magnify, and discover new perspectives in dance and performance. Artists selected from across Europe and the Mediterranean will be accompanied by a group of professionals to advise, support, and inspire their ongoing projects. Taking place for the first time in Lebanon, Telescope Beirut offers a dynamic week of dance workshops, talks, discussions, studio presentations, and select performances in non-conventional spaces. Telescope Beirut is an open creative platform and a space for artistic exchange for the local dance artists, professionals, amateurs, or simply anyone passionate about movement and performance. This is your chance to be part of an inspiring creative environment. Please note that not all events are streamed. For registration and inquiries you can contact: info@maqamat.org

SHIFT
SHIFT, which stands for ‘Shaping Harmony, Innovating Forms & Thought’, questions the forms of space organization in people’s lives culturally, politically and socially. The project seeks to explore new formats of artistic expression, community engagement, and audience interaction, involving artists, experts, and citizens from multiple EU and Mediterranean countries. By fostering a shift from mere observation to active participation and immersion, SHIFT focuses on investigating new spatial relationships, and shifting the emphasis from 'visual aesthetics' in conventional venues to dynamic 'aesthetics of action' in adaptable, non-dedicated performance spaces The project is led by Cie Omar Rajeh & Maqamat (France), Fondazione Fabbrica Europa per le arti contemporanee (Italy), Albania Dance Meeting (Albania). In association with France Travail Scènes et Images- Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (France), Beit El Raqs (Lebanon), Teatri Kombetar Eksperimental Kujtim Spahivogli (Albania)
