Essay Competition: Fairy Tales and Myths

As in previous years, DRIFT is organizing an essay contest! This year, the theme of the contest is ' Fairytales and Myths '. Whether you write about a fairytale you grew up with, a myth that inspires you, a fairytale you still believe in or perhaps we should believe in - about magic, storytelling traditions, the prince and the princess, the fox and the hare - call the muse and she will gently whisper inspiration to you.

Because lectures and debates as well as poetry, prose, music, theatre and visual arts are programmed, there is an interaction with artistic expressions that explore the edges of philosophy. As a visitor, you are tossed back and forth between theories, conversations, arts and impressions, to return home full of new ideas. Want to know more about the new programme?
