TRANSCULTURAL ARTISTIC ACTIVITIES
Our goal is to promote the idea that diversity can stimulate inspiration, creativity and mutual learning. With our activities we want to propagate a new understanding of cultural and artistic work and create a place where we can implement the paradigm of transculturality, which addresses the idea of positive fertilization of different cultures as well as a fluid understanding of culture. We believe in art as a favorable tool for connecting people and cultures across boundaries, transcending languages and traditional ways of thinking, as well as allowing people to reveal their own realities to others. By creating spaces for artists and non-artists to express themselves freely and creatively, Artistania fosters an inclusive creative community that encourages dialogue, kindness, understanding, mutual care and empathy.
 

ARTIVISM
In addition to promoting transcultural exchange and social values, the organization recognizes the transformative power of art in addressing social issues. The organization believes that art plays a critical role in challenging the status quo, questioning oppressive norms, and envisioning alternative futures. Therefore we work closely around topics like climate justice or xenophobia.

LIFELONG LEARNING
Our wish is to create different opportunities for lifelong learning and to reach people in our local neighborhoods and in isolated places who do not have the opportunity to get involved in creative learning processes. We want to blurr the sharp distinction between artists and non-artists, professionals and amateurs. To this end, Artistania collaborates with schools, community centers, and youth organizations to provide a wide range of creative programs.
