Institute K6/4 was established in 2000 as a result of the restructuring of the Student Organisation of the University of Ljubljana (ŠOU LJubljana) which is also one of its founders (the other is the Union of Student Clubs of Slovenia). Hosted in the building of the Student Organisation of the University of Ljubljana, it uses its infrastructure for a range of different projects and programmes, most of which were already run by its founder/host in the years before the establishment of Institute K6/4. The programming philosophy of Institute K6/4 is based on an ambition to become the central Slovene platform for live, emerging and thought-provoking culture. To this end the Institute is developing numerous programmes and projects within which young creators can efficiently express their creative energy, sharpen it with educational activities and assess it with the help of the audience. Over 100 courses and lectures, 250 cultural events and 20 new artworks are produced every year.
