Rolf Keller's term of office includes the reorientation of the Canton of Aargau Art Prize and the establishment of a recognition prize for cultural mediation, the development of the first cultural concept for the Canton of Aargau and this year, on the occasion of 50 years of cultural legislation and the Board of Trustees in Aargau, the anniversary event and the anniversary book "Oxygen for Art and Culture". The position will be advertised publicly.
