ABOUT
The non-profit association Kulturpark Ost e.V. is dedicated to fostering and realizing exceptional cultural initiatives. Its primary goal is to create a space for innovative, creative, and interdisciplinary projects where people from diverse backgrounds can come together and enrich the local cultural landscape. In doing so, the association places special emphasis on combining art, education, and social engagement.
Vision und Mission
Kulturpark Ost e.V. believes in the transformative power of art and culture. The association aims not merely to present artworks passively, but to actively invite people to become creative themselves. Through workshops, exhibitions, performances, and participatory projects, the goal is to open up new perspectives, foster creativity, and strengthen social cohesion.
Key tasks and areas of focus
- Artistic projects with an innovative approach:
The association supports artists in realizing unconventional and experimental projects. Whether in comedy, visual art, dance, or music, Kulturpark Ost e.V. provides the necessary infrastructure through collaborations to turn bold ideas into reality. - Participation and active involvement:
The association's projects are often designed to be interactive. For example, visitors to an exhibition can become part of an artwork themselves, or participants in comedy formats can become part of the show. - Educational opportunities:
Through cultural workshops, the association aims to make art more accessible to people of all ages. A particular priority is supporting young people, who often lack low-threshold opportunities to discover their creative talents. - Inclusion and Diversity:
Kulturpark Ost e.V. actively works to break down barriers—both physical and social. Projects are designed to be accessible to people with disabilities, refugees, and other marginalized groups. - Environmental sustainability:
Another important aspect is the sustainable design of the projects. The association prioritizes environmentally friendly materials and promotes themes that raise awareness of the connection between art and the environment.
Structure and finances
The association is led by a volunteer board. Kulturpark Ost e.V. is funded through donations, grants, and revenue from workshops and events. To ensure its non-profit status, all income is reinvested directly into project work. Kulturpark Ost e.V. aims to establish an organization that makes art and culture not only something to be experienced but also something that can be actively shaped.
