Money for culture in the countryside: seven projects funded

From train station to meeting place

In concrete terms, the "Kulturbahnhof Leisnig" association is receiving support to develop the former train station into a cultural and meeting place in the coming years. The "Auf weit Flur" project plans to develop the Augustusburg fiefdom into a community-run cultural venue. The "Steinleicht" association in Nebelschütz, on the other hand, is testing new artistic formats in Sorbian-German cultural work. The "Farbwerk" initiative in Dresden wants to establish an inclusive theater and dance ensemble.

Further funding will go to the "Sohland lebt!" association from Reichenbach (Upper Lusatia), which wants to secure its participatory formats in the long term. The "Kulturbaude und Landkunst" association in Gohrisch (Saxon Switzerland) aims to establish the Heymannbaude as a permanent cultural venue in the region. The Friedrich Bödecker Circle Saxony in Leisnig is realigning its reading promotion activities and aims to bring literature to young people in particular in various regions of Saxony.
