Slovenj Gradec Culture House
Programme overview
Since its inception in 1983, the Slovenj Gradec Culture House has hosted appearances by such musicians as Dubravka Tomšič Srebotnjak, Irena Grafenauer, James Morrison, Marjana Lipovšek, the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra, and many others. The venue organises and hosts the Slovenj Gradec Summer festival (Slovenjegraško poletje), which brings together regional cultural associations and remains the main cultural attraction of the season in the town and in the region of Koroška.
A partner town of Maribor, European Capital of Culture 2012, Slovenj Gradec links itself to its famous citizen, Hugo Wolf, whose musical impact was celebrated in 2012 with the opening of a renovated museum and a documentation centre devoted to this eminent composer. In addition, the first international workshop on classical solo singing was organised that same year.
