About this project

<p>The ARTKRAFT project corresponds to the general objectives of the Cultural Entrepreneurship, Heritage and Cooperation Program, with the aim of increasing access to art for a wider audience, as well as investing in the most valuable capital of the European family - young people. The project creates opportunities for inclusion of more young people in the cultural sector of Haskovo municipality, as well as the presentation of their efforts to create art in small settlements, where access to it is very limited. The potential that art and culture offer for greater social inclusion will be used by engaging children and young people of different ethnicities in cultural and educational activities. The planned activities will be implemented in bilateral cooperation and exchange between an organization from Iceland and Bulgaria and offer an opportunity for the general public to meet contemporary art in an attractive atmosphere and creative environment, incl.: ARTKRAFT FEST, GLOBALLY LOCAL, MUSICAL KALEIDOSCOPE, I - THE ARTIST, ART SCOUTS, INVITATION TO THEATER: Can you believe it?, SAGA OF FIRE AND ICE.&nbsp;In order to increase the professional competencies and skills in connection with the organization and holding of events of art and culture, as well as to attract audiences to the events, it is planned to develop a plan for attracting audiences and training for staff of DKT "Ivan Dimov" - Haskovo. There are also activities for organization and management of the project, as well as information and communication measures aimed at informing the general public and stakeholders about the development of the project, as well as the creation of a product related to the characteristics of the project, its sustainability and results.</p>
