Report on third production in Großhennersdorf
From June 12 to 14, 2025, the third edition of Future Production took place in Großhennersdorf as part of the project „JuBReg – Jugend bewegt Region, Region bewegt Jugend/Youth Vision Action“. Young people from Germany, Poland and Czechia, as well as social work students from the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences, came together to actively participate in the preparation of the Future Festival 2025. This will be held on September 13, 2025, as part of the city festival in Hoyerswerda.
The participants worked in several groups on content and artistic contributions to the festival. The production team focused on planning and designing the festival content, drafting discussion panels, and discussing public relations and external communication. At the same time, the “Action Art” and “Music” groups worked on the artistic presentation for the festival. The young people selected and curated the artistic works created during the Future Camps in the fields of music and performance in order to bring the young people's perspectives to life at the festival. The students also contributed artistically to the festival: during the three days, they worked on their sound installation, which brings together the voices of young people from all three countries and lets them speak in a shared soundscape.
A joint trip to Hoyerswerda on Saturday gave participants the opportunity to get to know the main festival venues in advance. This allowed them to get an idea of how and where their work will be presented to the public in September.
The Future Festival on September 13, 2025, will showcase the results of the entire project cycle. In the premises of the Konrad-Zuse Museum and the adjacent area, YVA will present the resulting artistic works in which the young people have processed their concerns, wishes and visions for the future of their region. The program will be complemented by discussion rounds and exchange formats that focus on young voices and the participation of young people.
The complete festival program will be published shortly.
