The Project
Arts&AI (AI & Arts) is a joint project of the Interregió Forum Association and Hargita County Council. The project is made possible by the Erasmus+ Small-scale Partnerships in the field of youth (KA210-YOU) program.
The experts leading the project are creating educational materials for young artists to help them apply new artificial intelligence tools. The aim is to enable applicants to keep pace with the latest developments and innovations, develop their artistic activities, and strengthen cultural ties between partner countries.
Target audience
The main target audience of the project is young people working in the visual creative industries who are able to apply AI in a number of areas in their work (the primary target audience is young people working in the visual creative industries in the fields of cultural heritage and functional areas).
We have the opportunity to involve a total of 30 young people from Hungary and Romania. We hope that among the participants there will be those for whom participation will open up broader opportunities, help them find employment, and show them the way to further development.

Creative Camp
The Program: 4 modules + 1 week creative camp
“AI & Animation Art” is a three-month blended learning course for those who want to learn to express their thoughts through visual tools as well.
The program’s goal is to familiarize participants with the opportunities offered by AI in animation creation and to provide practical knowledge to participants.
At the end of the course, participants take part in a one-week creative camp where they can follow the birth of an animation project from scriptwriting to animation implementation. The program is EU-funded and open to young people aged 18-30.
