GOALS OF THE PROJECT

Formation of long-term partnerships with municipal administrations

To form networks with the interest and action groups of the villages and communities

Direct involvement of artists in rural areas

Expanding participation in local cultural and artistic formats (inclusion, seniors, youth)

CONTENT AND TOPICS

In order to share our volunteer cultural work and experiences, we developed a mobile, temporary and cultural base camp that is “cool” and exciting for young people, but can also be a place of civic participation and encounter for seniors. Telling history” and “experiencing history” will be the first focus to this encounter and interaction of generations.

This base camp consists of four converted containers that will be set up as meeting spaces and media stations:

VR, PHOTO, AND FILM STUDIO
SOUND STUDIO
GRAPHICS STUDIO
EDITORIAL OFFICE FOR ONLINE NEWSPAPER, PODCAST, RADIO AND INTERNET

This will enable us to hold decentralized and independent events, workshops, training courses and projects with digital formats and to establish new places for cultural encounters.

Due to the open and flexible possibilities of use, the use is possible to a special extent, even with contact restrictions.

STATUS OF THE PROJECT TO DATE

As early as 2021, four construction containers were equipped as mobile culture stations. These mobile cultural stations were set up for 3 months in each of the communities of Dießen am Ammersee, Geltendorf and Schondorf and were used for various activities. The first experiences were very successful and there was a great demand and thus a great willingness of the communities for this form of cooperation.

CONTINUATION OF THE PROJECT IN 2022

Due to the fact that at the beginning of 2021 the building in Landsberg, where the activities and administration took place until then, was sold, this location will no longer be usable for the Kunstbaustelle from summer 2022. Thus, the expansion process that has begun with the cultural stations moves to the center of the current planning.

This offers the opportunity to expand the socio-cultural offerings to the entire district and establish itself independently of the location in the city. For this reason, cooperation with the municipalities is to be further expanded in a restructuring process.

The municipal administrations, cultural offices, youth centers and youth facilities are to be won as partners for a sustainable cooperation. Contacts have already been established with 8 of the 20 municipalities in the district. Initial cooperation projects were successfully implemented with three municipalities in 2021.
