From Program to Public Infrastructure: The Evolution of Dream Arts

Jeehye Suh, CEO, Inculture Consulting (Rep. of Korea); Adjunct Professor, Korea National University of Arts

06-03-2026

When we first designed the Dream Orchestra in 2010, we saw “isolation” as one of the most urgent conditions in children’s lives. At the time, the intensity of college entrance competition had already reached elementary school, and many children were being pushed into highly competitive, lonely environments.

Fifteen years later, children’s lives have not become easier. They remain caught in the competitive trap of the education system while social and economic inequality continues to deepen their vulnerability. Declining physical and mental wellbeing, weakened community ties, and the replacement of direct relationships with media-based activities have also left them increasingly disconnected.

TUTTI Passeurs d’Arts: A Living Dynamic at the Heart of Communities

Jean-Claude Decalonne, Founder/Director, TUTTI Passeurs d’Arts

05-06-2026

TUTTI Passeurs d’Arts is a network of children’s and youth orchestras in France, committed to creating learning environments conducive to the development of children from all backgrounds. Our commitment naturally aligns with the global family of programs inspired by El Sistema in Venezuela and its founder, Maestro José Antonio Abreu. We share the deep conviction that orchestral practice transforms life paths and opens doors where none have seemed to exist.

One of our most accomplished initiatives, TUTTI Bretagne, embodies this vision in a particularly concrete way.
