The pro­ject man­ager is Małgorzata Szy­dłowska, Deputy Dir­ect­or of the Łaźnia Nowa Theatre.

The pro­ject focuses on rein­for­cing and improv­ing the con­di­tion of the infra­struc­ture in which the Łaźnia Nowa Theatre con­ducts its cul­tur­al activ­ity. The main aim of the pro­ject is to extend and adapt the non-her­it­age infra­struc­ture of the former school build­ing, known as the New Wing, and to estab­lish the Uto­pia Home Art and Edu­ca­tion Centre. Uto­pia Home, which will oper­ate in Nowa Huta near Cra­cow, will focus on con­tem­por­ary art under­stood as a vehicle of inter­per­son­al relations.

 

The stra­tegic goal of the pro­ject is to devel­op cul­tur­al her­it­age and con­tem­por­ary art in Cra­cow and to use the poten­tial of the city for the bene­fit of cul­tur­al edu­ca­tion, which will increase soci­et­al par­ti­cip­a­tion in culture.

 

Inter­me­di­ate object­ives include: increas­ing gen­er­al par­ti­cip­a­tion in cul­ture, improv­ing the cul­tur­al com­pet­en­cies of the soci­ety, increas­ing the tour­ist appeal of Nowa Huta, Cra­cow and Less­er Poland, fos­ter­ing the social and eco­nom­ic devel­op­ment of the city and the region, rein­for­cing the cul­tur­al iden­tity of the res­id­ents, and fos­ter­ing the devel­op­ment of Cra­cow as an import­ant centre of social art based on its loc­al potential.

 

Expec­ted res­ults: improv­ing soci­et­al par­ti­cip­a­tion in cul­ture which res­ults in an increase in the level of cul­tur­al com­pet­en­cies and cre­at­ive attitudes.

In the next stages of the pro­ject, we will carry out renov­a­tion and con­struc­tion work, buy equip­ment, and fur­nish rooms to be able to carry out cul­tur­al and edu­ca­tion­al activ­it­ies in the new build­ing. Thanks to this pro­ject, the Theatre will gain almost 2200 square metres of usable area, which will be used by a wide audience.

 

The New Wing is part of the former Elec­tric­al School Com­plex in the Szkolne 26 hous­ing estate in Cra­cow-Nowa Huta. The build­ing will be recon­struc­ted, exten­ded, and insu­lated. The recon­struc­tion will cov­er the intern­al elec­tric­al and plumb­ing sys­tems, cent­ral heat­ing, vent­il­a­tion, air con­di­tion­ing, and the sewage con­nec­tions. The area around the build­ing will be developed as well.
