The Architecture Week, which will take us into a world full of creative projects and inspiration to create is ahead of us. There will be painting exhibitions, creative workshops, and events.

The Architecture Week starts on Monday, April 29th. In addition to ceramic workshops, the organizers have prepared many initiatives for the inhabitants of the region, thanks to which you will be able to get acquainted with the architecture of Silesian cities. An excellent opportunity for this will be, among others, an architectural walk around Katowice, which will start from the Youth Palace.

Also, on Monday in the Silesian Library there will be an interesting discussion on architectural motifs in books.

And in the centre of Katowice a dance surprise is planned, which will confirm how you can use the urban space to present art. The show will take place at 03.00 p.m. On Saturday, also in the heart of Katowice, you will be able to take part in an artistic and photographic performance and a social game under the slogan “Open Up to Yourself” also available for blind people.
