The concept of culture is like other definitions: What does it include and what does it distinguish from?
The state’s “Culture Suitcase” funding program has been taking a broad approach for years.
It has just become known that this year the Ministry of Art will invest a total of 337,000 euros in selected cultural mediation offers for the program.
Children and young people in particular should use the portfolio to gain access to and enjoy art and culture, discover their own potential and develop passions.
Regardless of social parameters such as origin, place of residence, environment, mother tongue and the financial situation of the parents.
culture for everyone.
"Culture case" filled since 2016
The suitcase that gives it its name is full to bursting with 21 projects that could hardly be more different, from workshops to theatre, film and dance to creative play with words or pondering the influence of technology and machines on our everyday lives.
Anyone looking at the projects selected by the jury headed by the State Association for Cultural Education in Hesse only regrets one thing: not being an adolescent anymore.
Otherwise you could experiment with rust during the holiday offer in Weilmünster, shoot your own cartoon in Kassel or build a robot in Frankfurt.
The funding program, which was first implemented in 2016 to expand the cultural education landscape in Hesse, shows what culture basically has to be: an offer for everyone, diverse and motley.
