Ad Black Sea turns 10.

A moment to celebrate - the work, the people, the energy, the culture - everything that’s been built around it.

But the world has transformed through this time.

The context has massively changed.

Things really moved to extremes.

Now, as if everyday is a fight for survival.

And the Festival of Creativity has turned into a Festival of Creative Resistance.

That means we recognise the fact of living - working, creating and even having fun on this edge - as the form of the ongoing battle.

Ad Black Sea 10:

_____ ON THE EDGE

And the “edge” is not just a metaphor.

It’s literally where we exist - geographically, culturally, professionally, emotionally.

Over the years, Ad Black Sea has become a space connecting this region to a wider creative world:

A place to learn, question, challenge, exchange.

Serious work and serious fun, side by side.

“On the Edge” is both a reflection and a mindset.

It’s about embracing one certainty:

The only way to survive on this edge is to fight for the principles. 

So we don’t just gather this year.

We meet each other _____ ON THE EDGE.
