Project purpose and goals
The project addresses issues of community integration and inactivity by fostering local engagement across various social and age groups. It brings high-quality cultural content to regional audiences, thereby bridging the cultural and social gap between big cities and small towns. This initiative not only unites communities locally but also enriches them nationally by enhancing access to cultural experiences.
