Dream City: A different festival

Dream City is a multidisciplinary biennial arts festival that invests the informal spaces of the medina of Tunis, founded in 2007 by Selma and Sofiane Ouissi. The festival addresses and deals with the social and political realities of Tunis in a fragile global context. Dream City is distinguished by its unique methodology: inviting Tunisian and international artists to invent and create contextually by engaging with the city and its inhabitants, accompanying the invited artists and offering them a long period of creation. Themes such as migration, democracy and citizenship, living together, human rights, but also issues related to governance, environmental crimes and memory are at the heart of the project.
