'' . . . The documentary of the Circle created beautiful conversations and moments of recognition and experiences among the students. Brotherhood, relationships, poverty, racism, and role models were all discussed. It was a beautiful thing for me to see how students with completely, different backgrounds started talking to each other about the lack of good role models or the importance of recognition of a father figure in the family. Unfortunately, when I was growing up, these conversations were still taboo

Participation in the project MAGIC OF THE FRAME with partners from Hungary (Palentir organization - also a member of ALF network in Hungary), Netherlands and Bulgaria for Youth centre Babilonas (Lithuania) creates many magic moments discussing, sharing, creating, laughing and learning).

All days of the camp was full of emotions and hugs

We all are dancers and musicians by nature, thank you for the inspiring creative laboratory Petras Lisauskas 😘
In the afternoons - the workshops with Icelander Agnar Jón Egilsson, whose sessions, in the words of the children, "you can just be yourself". 😘
The finale day was crowned by a theater procession, ice cream (how can we do without it when 3 Nordic countries are participating!) and @TEATER TAPIR's Finnish theater with the play SPLUTTNI TONK! Thanks to writer, illustrator @LindaBondestam and Co! 😘😘😘😘
We would like to thank all the 40 children from small vilages such as Videniškiai, Giedraičiai, Dubingiai who participated, for being safe and receptive, and their parents for being benevolent and forgiving of problems😘
Our partners - Videniškiai Community Center, Dubingių Eldership, Giedraičių Antanas Jaroševičius Gymnasium😘
We laughed out of kindness, out of fatigue, out of overheating, and out of happiness, realizing the privilege of living safely and fully, in the wonderful nature of Dubingiai land, having so many friends and support to raise the creators of the future. 😇
Thanks to the office of the Nordic Council of Ministers in Lithuania for these opportunities and Brigita Urmanaitė for the visit😘

The institution's directions include socially engaged contemporary cultural activities, coordination of inclusive cultural and community events and dissemination of cultural information. The institution currently employs 17 staff.

Main partners include NGO Artscape, Vilnius Academy of Arts, Centre for Culture of Different Nations, NGO Rupertas, NGO Community Laboratories, Lithuanian Film Foundation and other Kaunas budgetary institutions (galleries, museums).

Mission and Objectives

Kaunas Artists' House aims to contribute to the strengthening of democracy and the inclusion of socially vulnerable communities in the field of culture and beyond; to bring together a community of artists, cultural professionals and local activists; to encourage the involvement and support of young and community artists, to create active links with local and international communities; to raise the awareness and dissemination of contemporary arts and co-creative practices.

Main Projects / Activities

Main activities of Kaunas Artist's House (KMN) - KMN offers a varied repertoire through long-term curated programmes and projects with partners in Lithuania and abroad. - KMN runs thematic residency and event programmes for artists, curators and cultural researchers who critically examine regional identity, gender and sexuality, and other contemporary themes. - KMN's educational programmes offer activities based on contemporary cultural practices, with an emphasis on the inclusion of vulnerable youth groups, participant voice and democratic communication. - KMN organises city-wide cultural and community festivals (e.g. CourtYard festival, Fluxus festival and etc.), the Carillon Music Festival, the Kaunas Culture Fair, and the Putvinskis Street Day. - The KMN Infocentre coordinates the cultural field in Kaunas: it connects artists, institutions and cultural consumers, as well as collects and disseminates cultural information. - KMN also runs film and video art programmes, experimental and industrial music projects and co-creates projects with cultural and social partners and the local community.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

Kaunas Artists' House is an organisation that is more than 50 years old and has recently been actively renewing itself and looking for new ways of cooperation. Using our experience and contacts, we can share information, open calls, etc. - the KMN Infocentre is directly dedicated to this. We are also looking for new ways to involve different social groups, to raise topical issues for discussion, to do more networking (we cooperate intensively at local level, but we want to grow international links). We aim to do this through cultural actions, so we can simply organise concerts, trainings, workshops, and we can use our resources to communicate this (including the Kaunas municipality level).

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

ALF's mission and activities are in line with what Kaunas Artists' House does and aims to achieve. This foundation seems to be an opportunity to expand our activities, contacts and to find new opportunities for cooperation in the field of youth inclusion, equality and diversity. These are topics that still receive insufficient attention in Kaunas, but our goal is to put them in the center of attention with the help of cultural activities. I have no doubt that cooperation with ALF can be extremely beneficial in achieving the set goal.
