Pekarna (‘Bakery’) is the largest alternative cultural centre in north east Slovenia, located in a former military bakery on the right bank of the Drava River in the city of Maribor.
History
Cultural activities were started here in 1994 by three non-governmental and non-profit organisations: Friends of Dolphins, the Alternative Music Workshop Gustaf and House Gallery. While the majority of Maribor cultural institutions are located in the centre of the city on the left bank of the Drava River, today Pekarna still presents the only cultural centre located on the right bank. Pekarna's six buildings accommodate around 40 associations, clubs, and individuals; several of them focus on arts (music, visual arts, photography, video) while others focus on civil society activities or on sports. Pekarna collectively has the status of a youth centre and a local information centre. Financial support for its activities comes from Maribor Urban Municipality, and programme support from various ministries and ministry bodies.
