Toihaus Salzburg is looking for projects or idea sketches from all artistic fields and genres that are dedicated to the manifold importance of fungi for life on our planet as well as their connection and interconnectedness with it. The central questions are: What can we learn from mushrooms about ourselves or for our everyday life and our future? What thoughts, reflections or ideas critical of society and civilization could be clarified and inspired by mushrooms?

Not only is dancing much fun and awakens your zest for life, it also strengthens your capacity for empathy, self-confidence and cognitive skills – Casinos Austria share the same opinion and therefore donated 30 ImPulsTanz workshops to economically disadvantaged children and teenagers. Together with you and Lass springen!, we hope to be able to give the chance to take part in a workshop to many more children. Any donation to Lass springen! will be doubled by ImPulsTanz – so your contribution is worth twice as much! The workshops financed through these donations will be provided to SOS-Kinderdorf and the NGO Flucht nach Vorn. MORE
