Abstract
This session focuses on the various learning opportunities for university students, educators and industry professionals through international professional organizations. The International Organization of Scenographers, Theatre Architects and Technicians (OISTAT) is a network of over 30 national design associations across the globe. The organization has commissions focusing on Performance Design, Technology, Architecture, Publication & Communication, Education and Research. OISTAT hosts several symposiums, events and conferences each year. Every four years, OISTAT members organize World Stage Design—– an international design festival containing a public design exhibition, symposiums, masterclasses and international performances. Beyond OISTAT, additional information will be shared about the upcoming 2019 Prague Quadrennial and other upcoming international events focused on performance design and technology. As an extension of the sessions topic, there will be a conversation about how to participate in future events, how to find student funding opportunities and various ways to connect with international theatre organizations.
