@ President of “Impact Foundation”
Agata Etmanowicz is President of “Impact Foundation”, partner organisation of Kaunas 2022 which was responsible for creating and conducting a multi-annual capacity building Audience Development Programme. Agata has been a culture worker her whole life. She has been involved in a culture sector from various perspectives: from technical production and coordinating accessibility of art events to co-creating European culture policy. Supporting fellow culture professionals has always been a crucial part of her work – in workshop rooms and “in a field”, through the structures of public institutions, international organisations and NGOs. She believes in social usefulness. That applies to both: her private and her professional life. Together with “Impact Foundation” she promotes the approach which combines audience development and accessibility (as “you can’t have one without the other”!).
