Szkoły – opis główny sztuka

We also run art education and creative workshops in schools of all levels in Warsaw and the Mazovia region. In community centres, cultural centres, libraries and parks, our friendly artists introduce children, teenagers and teachers to contemporary art and invite them to creative activities. Works are created from soap, pasta, clay and rubbish. They are sewn, knitted, sculpted and printed. The participants learn new artistic techniques, get inspired by the works of artists and learn to communicate with signs. They tell stories about themselves through art. 

Art- wpis głowny


Art is a tool for communication, integration and social inclusion.
Since 2007, we have been carrying out artistic activities wherever they are needed. We invite the most interesting Polish artists, educators, art curators and people from marginalised and excluded environments to become part of our collaborative projects. Our activities and initiatives reach small towns in the Mazovia region, prisons, refugee centres and educational centres. We work mainly with minorities.
