Connections with purpose.
A prospective agenda for conversations about mental health, participatory arts and public-private collaboration. From European cultural gatherings to philanthropic forums, through December 2027.
Start a conversation.
Build something meaningful.
We welcome introductions from foundations, cultural organisations, research institutions and responsible corporate supporters. Email contact@emho.org with your organisation, event and proposed topic.
Discuss a meeting ↗Entries are marked CONFIRMED only when written event access has been received and verified. Otherwise they remain UNCONFIRMED. Admission, hotel/accommodation and dinner are recorded separately: “Not confirmed” means unspecified; “Not included” is used only when the organiser explicitly excludes that benefit. A published event date does not confirm EMHO attendance.
Listing an event does not imply affiliation, invitation, sponsorship or endorsement. EMHO is an initiative in formation.

“Priority” is our editorial assessment of relevance, not a commitment to attend. “Watchlist” entries require further verification or a stronger reason to travel. The calendar download includes only published dates, all marked tentative for EMHO.

No listed event matches these filters. Our planning roadmap below also includes preparation and follow-up periods.
Beyond the event itself.
Build the foundations
Define an eligible receiving entity or host, cost a modest pilot and arrange introductory conversations. Review Lisbon and Miami opportunities against budget and access.
Prepare introductions
Davos is conditional. February is reserved for remote preparation, prospective Geneva and Brussels conversations and a focused TEFAF meeting plan.
Connect across disciplines
Prioritise Paris, Turin and Basel. Cannes is selective. Explore arts, community participation and accountable public-benefit collaboration with relevant partners.
Turn conversations into proposals
Use remote follow-up, due diligence and pilot co-design rather than adding travel by default. No public appearance is announced for these months.
Develop the next partnership round
Consider Monaco for well-prepared corporate introductions. Review Art Basel Paris when official dates are published. ART+GALA remains a separate concept with no announced date or venue.
Review, report and renew
Review Lisbon and Miami date announcements, evaluate discussions and prepare a transparent 2028 partnership plan. No automatic travel or event commitment.
From encounter to collaboration.
Our aim is to explore a small, costed and assessable public-benefit pilot before any wider expansion. Proposed activities focus on arts, participation, belonging and experienced wellbeing; they are not clinical treatment. Any funded delivery requires an eligible legal recipient, agreed responsibilities, safeguarding and a proportionate evaluation plan.
Academic funding, EMHO public-benefit resources and commercial franchise or licensing development require distinct arrangements. No funding, partner or independently organised ART+GALA edition is confirmed by this agenda.
