Delavski dom in Trbovlje was opened in 1954 in a newly built modernist building known for its façade mosaic by Marij Pregelj and sculptures by Stojan Batič with the miners as a leitmotiv. Comprising both performing arts and visual arts spaces, the venue's own cultural programme is diverse, ranging from local cultural events to performances by Slovene theatre houses and independent groups. Several well-known Slovene cultural groups from the Zasavje region often return home to perform at Delavski dom, including Laibach and the EnKnapGroup (EKG). Since 2009 Delavski dom has hosted a Speculum Artium Festival of Integrated Arts and launched a series of new media events proclaiming Trbovlje a New Media City (TNM).
