Educating and

The locus of Pionirski dom's the activities is very straightforward – educating youth in matters of culture and creativity. However, its scope is rather fascinating and ranges from music, theatre and film education to foreign languages and cultures courses. It engages well respected Slovene artists for its programmes. In order to showcase youth creativity it organises about a dozen festivals annually. It is the biggest institution of its kind in Slovenia.

Pionirski dom is based just outside the city centre, in a striking semicircular building (partially) designed by Jože Plečnik. It manages the Festival Hall, located in the same building and available for various cultural events or for business and congress purposes. It also runs two smaller venues in the city centre – the Art Centre (used for visual arts workshops and for smaller exhibitions) and the Jenko Dance Centre.


Background

Originally known as the Baraga Seminary, the building was sort of finished in 1941 (per the original plans it should be a circular building, reminiscent of the Coliseum). Later, in 1956, it was adapted according to the plans of Anton Bitenc and the newly built Festival Hall became one of the prime dancing and socialising venues in Ljubljana.

Pinirski dom was established and stationed here in 1963. Ever since it's been a staple in nurturing Ljubljana's cultural literacy.
