Culture Hub Croatia & School of Fine Arts Split

The profession of cultural manger is still not well known or understood at the local level, therefore, through the Learning Labs we introduce new perspectives on the work in the CCIs, share examples and explain the principles of social entrepreneurship and innovation in the field, while opening the space for co-creation and ideation process.

Participants will map social challenges and use their creativity as artists and designers to provide possible solutions and start their own projects in future. The program will offer much needed knowledge on how to become self-employed, how to organize as a cooperative or association and how to launch a social enterprise. CHC will introduce the possibilities of students’ engagement within the creative hub PROSTOR in Split and will further mentor the students to potentially implement the project idea developed.

This Learning Lab will result in a slide-deck prepared by students, showcasing their ideas and the solution they co-created during a final community event. The ideation process will be explained and exposed on posters, prepared by the students themselves. A Q&A session will be organized in the presence of relevant cultural managers from the city and potential supporters of the project idea, allowing for networking and the opportunity for young talents to be discovered.
