After launching a European consortium — the Creative Room European Alliance (CREA), supported by the Creative Europe program of the European Commission and gathering nine founding partners across five countries — members of the alliance are now setting off on a tour of Europe aimed to putting creativity at the core of cultural trends.

 The Creative Europe tour starts on September 28, 2022, in Madrid, in a place of capital importance to Spanish culture: the Cervantes Institute. Luis Garcia Montero, the director of the institute and author will gather creators and cultural actors around Madrid’s very own kind of creativity, specifically in music and writing.
