Open call

In the coming months, we will invite to carry out projects two migrant artists or creative groups who are interested in performing intergenerational and intercultural activities inspired by the concept of IMAGINATION.

We will be particularly interested in projects that address the topic of imagination in the face of climate catastrophe and relate to current global events.

 

Initiatives submitted as part of the program will receive:

  • PLN 5 000 gross per activity
  • a workshop room for work / rehearsals / workshops
  • substantive, promotional and production support

 

 

We are looking for projects to be realized in May and June 2025 that:

  • consist of a minimum of 4 workshop meetings involving the local intercultural community
  • include a part open to the wider audience
  • are intercultural and intergenerational
  • are carried out by individual migrant artists or intergenerational artistic groups

Courage, Freedom, Imagination

Courage, Freedom, Imagination is a project by Strefa WolnoSłowa, through which we want to expand the group of migrant artists cooperating with our organization. For years, the main focus of Strefa WolnoSłowa's activities has been creative work with intergenerational groups of people from different cultural backgrounds and with varying degrees of previous involvement in artistic initiatives. We are inspired by the exchange of stories, working with biographies, searching together for forms for stories and experiences, initiating participatory processes and meeting spaces for diversity. 

 

Courage, freedom, imagination is a program in which we explore the concepts mentioned in the title. We want the projects we undertake to develop sensitivity, openness to challenges, imagination, the ability to cooperate and courage in both the participants and the initiators of the activities, and we strive for this through various creative forms: workshops, walks, knowledge exchange, performative events, mutual support and inspiration.
