International Conference Craft Work, Design, Creativity: Between Tradition and Contemporaneity

We will showcase the methods our partners use to present crafts, cultural and natural heritage in the international conference organized by PU "Paisii Hilendarski" from June 8 to 10 in Gabrovo and Plovdiv. We will share experience and some results from the project "Time Perspectives".

Meeting representatives of the European Commission

Intercultura Consult is among the 35 selected organizations in the structured dialogue between the cultural sector and the European Commission - Voices of Culture for 2021 - 2022. This year the focus was on digital audiences and how cultural organizations can improve their relationship with them. At the end of April in Brussels participants presented proposals and guidelines for working with digital audiences to the European Commission. Intercultura Consult was represented by Milena Berbenkova, who is also a co-author of the final report with recommendations. The report will be released in the coming weeks. Follow us to receive access to it.

“Time Perspectives” - Project Progress

The project is already in the incubation phase of experiments! Two of our partners have already developed new activities:

Museum of Humor and Satire, Gabrovo started working with volunteers - students from local high schools. Volunteers participated in two workshops: photography and videography in March, and assisted the Museum in celebrating its 50th anniversary on April 1st. They also support the 25th Gabrovo Biennial of Humor and Satire in Art, which is currently underway.

Community Center (Chitalishte) "Prosveta - 1881" in the village of Kostenets held a workshop on the Kostenets tradition of “drawing” Easter eggs on April 16. Together with the designer Victoria Staykova they created a graphic identity to use to promote the tradition. The Chitalishte also partnered with the travel agency SlowTours.bg to organize a thematic tour of the village of Kostenets and the region, which included participation in the workshop.

The Museum of Natural History in the village of Cherni Osam is working on developing a digital communication strategy for the Museum's Ranger Days events and the results of which will be visible in the next editions of the event.

Community center (Chitalishte) "Elin Pelin 1896", Elin Pelin is working on a new textile workshop, which will take place on May 30.
