Kamnik Culture House
Programme
In total the Kamnik Culture House hosts more than 100 events each year, including drama, puppetry, and comedy, as well as music and dance performances, lectures, screenings and exhibitions. However, it's main focus is in presenting and staging works for youth. The culture centre also serves as an important local node and shelter for many smaller non-formal and non-professional artist groups and associations.
The Culture House has hosted guest performances from Ptuj City Theatre, Slovene National Theatre Maribor, Slovene National Theatre Drama Ljubljana, Slovene People’s Theatre (SLG) Celje, Mladinsko Theatre, Glej Theatre, Špas Theatre, and Theatre 55. It also produces in-house stage performances with local theatre, dance and choir groups.
Traditionally it has also served as an important hub and supporting venue for various Kamfest festival activities and performances.
International projects
In 2004 one notable project was the coordination of The Ghost Town, a youth performing arts workshop exchange project supported by EU funding, which resulted in a multimedia interactive performance created by young performers from Poland, Italy, Austria, and Slovenia. As the theme was cultural heritage, it was performed at Mali grad, Zaprice Castle and some other historical venues.
