Background
In 1965, MKC Koper (Youth and Culture Centre Koper) was established. In the period 1991-2014 it was led by the Association of the Friends of Moderate Progress as a venue for alternative, subcultural and underground cultural, social and political public programmes. In 2014 the Association had to move out of the building of the MKC, but it continued its work in MKSMC Botegin – Youth, Cultural, Social, Multimedia and Intergenerational Centre.
Programme
The Association of the Friends of Moderate Progress, together with Foundation Pohorski Battalion, is continuing its cultural and social events at the Botegin Centre, many of which have already been conceived in MKC Koper: for example, it continues with the festival Koperground Festival. Every year the LGBT Film Festival is hosted. It organizes concerts, for example of songwriters Franci Blašković, Marko Brecelj or Dani Kavaš, exhibitions, film screenings, discussions, lectures, performances and cultural gatherings. It also organizes various workshops, especially for young people, but still intergenerational-oriented, for example about the functioning of nongovernmental sector, art and film workshops, etc.
