Nový model kulturního centra

Culture and Art have, without a doubt, always been major development factors for people and the society as a whole. However, there is no effortless access for everyone or everywhere. This Thesis is focused on the phenomenon of the multifunctional cultural center as an institution developing and initiating cultural and communal life in a region or in a smaller regional city with no cultural infrastructure or background. The first part deals with the discursus of the contemporary cultural centers. Apart from the management issues of the centers, this Thesis handles their work with their target groups as well as their today's mission and activities, which all make these institutions unique. The short summary of the Czech culture centers typology is included; it maps their basic forms in the Czech Republic. The Thesis is ended with a factual proposal of a new multifunctional culture center, which puts the cultural awakening of the citizenry to a more creative way of life with a sense of belonging as its main priority.
