The Manifesta 11 International Visitors’ programme invited 65 international art educators and curators from over 20 different countries worldwide to Zurich. The goal of the programme was to foster dialogue and cultural exchange, and to broaden professional networks for international and Swiss art professionals. 
The itinerary of the programme gave the participants a look ‘behind-the-scenes’ of Manifesta 11 and introduced them to current developments within contemporary art institutions based in different parts of Switzerland. The programme enabled visitors to exchange with a number of Swiss art institutions and individuals working in the field of art education/mediation and curating. The duration of the programme was 4 to 5 days.
 
This programme is supported by and developed together with Pro Helvetia, the Swiss Art Council.
