50 Years NRW KULTURsekretariat
The NRW KULTURsekretariat is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Since 1974, this "innovation agency for cities" has been initiating, promoting and organising a wide range of programmes, projects and events - often interdisciplinary and experimental - together with 20 member cities and a regional association as well as numerous municipal, national and international cultural partners.
On 6 September, the NRW KULTURsekretariat will celebrate 50 years: Miteinander – nach vorn! (Together - forwards!) will be celebrated with talks, music and presentations at the Wuppertal Opera House. Prof Dr Nobert Lammert will speak on this occasion.
In addition, the NRWKS is organising the conference "ACT LOCAL! Perspektiven internationaler Kulturarbeit vor Ort (Perspectives on International Cultural Work on Location) at the Pina Bausch Centre in Wuppertal.
Together with its member cities, the NRWKS also organised a special participation project in the form of a competition entitled "Ich bin von hier" (I'm from here) to mark the anniversary. People from the member cities were invited to record their experiences on the topic of "Experiencing diversity" in short videos or audios. The winning entries can be viewed here and will also be presented at the event on 6 September in Wuppertal.
