The Berlin Summer University of the Arts offers a wide range of courses in the fields of visual art, music, design and performing arts as well as transdisciplinary formats - all in an international environment.

From June to September 2025, the diverse programme of over 30 workshops invites participants to deepen their artistic practice, connect with international artists and collectively build new spaces for creative interaction. 

The theme of this year’s edition is Utopia: What does an ideal world look like? How can we collectively shape our present and future? In times marked by instability and uncertainty, what role can art play in processing experiences, challenging existing boundaries, and carving out alternative spaces? These and other questions will form the basis for artistic inquiry. From various artistic and academic perspectives, the course programme will open the space to create, test and explore visions for a better world.

Course registration is open.
