Our work is founded on five core values.
Play
We believe that a person develops throughout his or her life, and that play and socialising are as important (and sometimes, much more) as study in this development.
Experiment
We take innovative approaches with familiar formats.
Inclusivity
We do not just create events for children, but also for parents and children, even for parents without children. People of different ages—preschoolers, primary school children, teenagers, adults—play, learn, and create together at the House of Culture.
Diversity
We love projects that span different genres, fields of knowledge, and art forms.
Co-creation
We embrace the principle of co-creation, encouraging children to act as co-curators, experts, and facilitators.
In our work with teenagers, we aim to rethink common hierarchical models of cultural and social interaction, such as “museum – visitor,” “teacher – student,” “adult – teenager.”

First and foremost, our programmes for youth explore everyday life through the prism of art and the perspective of a young adult. Everyone has the right to be heard at
