Locally: culture animation / community artsPosted in: Books, Ideas, Resources by Iwona Kurz on 1st July, 2008.
What are - if any - connections between idea of culture animation and community arts? What are roots of community arts in England and of culture animation in Poland? Who are people belonging to "tribe of active culture"? What could be possible use of etnographic research for culture animation?
We ask these questions - and try to answer some of them - in the book Locally: Culture Animation / Community Arts based on our findings from ANIMUS and ANIMATOR projects.

Job fair or market of cultural initiatives?Posted in: Activities, IKP, Ideas, PoWiśle i po Pradze, Resources by Iwona Kurz on 8th May, 2008.
"If the word “relationship” has been stamped all over the job description at the task level, or the level of specific professional experience, then it should go without saying that it has to be evident in the way in which culture animation-related tasks and initiatives are presented. If the words “contact”, “person”, “relationship”, “bond” and “communication” are at once the primary key terms and the foundation on which the practice of cultural animation has been built, then they should be present wherever the results of cultural animation projects are exhibited. This is why it was hard to envisage an "Animation Initiatives Market" (AIM) along the lines of a "fair", like a book fair, a job fair, a tourism fair, etc. when planning the ANIMATOR project" - writes Małgorzata Litwinowicz.
And this is why the final event of April 26th was not only a platform for promotion of ANIMATOR’s results but - above all - a pilot event testing a model for exchange of ideas in education and practice in culture animation.
