Beginnings
The space at Soteska 8 had been used for artistic events (open studios, workshops) even before the formal establishment of the gallery that was opened in May 2009 with the exhibition Animal Kingdom by Vladimir Leben. The name TukadMunga - a river that runs upstream is in relation to the alternative policy of the gallery which is informally also known as Soteska, and since January 2012 named Prostor (“Space”).
Workshops and courses
TukadMunga organises or co-organises various workshops, such as Light and Textile, Illustrations for Ibotity picture book and Batik workshop led by Katja Colja. Art courses TukadMunga - Iskra take place in or in front of the the gallery and are led by Iskra Beličanska and assistant Matjaž Stražar. The courses finish with an exhibition and are supported by Employment Service of Slovenia and European Social Fund and are free for unemployed.
