Officine Culturali e le partecipazioni

Cultural Participation

Officine Culturali designs and experiments daily, thanks to study and research, several initiatives, activities and moments of dialogue and discussion that bring into play different tools and languages with the aim of expanding the cultural participation of the chosen communities.

No less important, and connected to it, it’s the fight against the phenomenon of educational poverty, considered among the main purposes of the actions carried out, within the framework of a general vision of cultural welfare with the aim of social cohesion. The cultural demands and needs of the different audiences are placed at the center with a view to active and conscious participation.

Experiencing places of culture

The services, to increase and differentiate the cultural participation of communities,  are based on inclusive processes aimed at breaking down architectural, social, economic and cognitive barriers.

Guided tours – thematic and outside usual hours – educational activities for schools and families, theater, concerts, meetings and book presentations are just some of the initiatives taking place to activate the practices of participation and active citizenship, strengthening knowledge and the sense of belonging to places of culture. Activities can also be built to support cultural and educational events, integrating the cultural offer.
