At the end, we met at the Municipal Office, where a varied programme awaited us. The Fokoš mining choir brought us an unforgettable musical experience, along with speeches, video-mapping on the Municipal Office building and folk music by the Majer family. Together we created a memorable moment in the history of Kremnica. Thank you for your participation and we look forward to more celebrations together!

The first of them will be the opening of the Culture House Petržalka. The day-long programme will take place on 16 September in the square in front of the entrance to the building. The celebratory event is seen as a gift for spectators and supporters on the occasion of the opening of the 30th season and also as the end of the summer. Admission to the event will therefore be free.

The program is designed for the general public. The small audience will be delighted by the folklore group Hájenka with their theatrical performance Don Šajn and Šašo Ľuboš with his performance, which will be followed by the contemporary circus Cirkus Cirkus with an acrobatic show created directly for the House of Culture. Since the guys from Malalata make nice parties, they cannot miss the 30th anniversary celebrations. The artistic group TRAKT is preparing a spectacular ending in the form of Videommapping on the building of the Mirror Grove – an audiovisual show projected on the building.

The activities of museums during the Night of Museums and Galleries are oriented towards activities that remain hidden from the public throughout the year. At that time, museums open their “hidden” chambers to the public and reveal secrets hidden from public view. In this way, the public can penetrate the secrets of the ‘museum kitchen’. ‘Unlocking the secrets’ also helps the public, through the knowledge and information thus gained, to better understand the importance of museums in preserving part of the cultural and natural heritage preserved in museums.

As part of the Night of Museums and Galleries event in Trencin, TRAKT will present a pair of art projects in the Atrium under the Tower and in the City Tower on 13 May.

CITY TOWER
9.00 – 23.00 LIGHT HARF | Interactive game full of light beams. Become a player and try what it is like to play on the lights.
With your movements and touches you create beautiful light curtains and melodies. This game immerses you in a world of light and music.

ATRIUM UNDER THE TOWER
21.00 – 23.00 LIGHT GRAFFITI | Do you want to become part of street art and leave your digital legacy? Put your light graffiti on the façade of the Atrium. Just press the spray nozzle and you can start creating huge works of art. What’s more, you don’t have to worry about damaging the history of the façade because it’s a digital projection.

The exhibition featured Lukáš Matejka / TRAKT (tech. collaboration Alžbeta Bobulová), with the work Home X. Home – Time – Humanity – Technology – Space. Using digital video mapping, the author contrasts the dwelling of the past (the ruins of Parič Castle) and the possible home of the future (the universe).

During the theoretical phase of the workshop, the participants improved their technical, technological and software skills while learning about current trends in the art field. During the practical phase, in cooperation with expert lecturers, they used the acquired experience directly in the field of the park. The educational laboratory provided direct experience with the realization of the work and confrontation with the viewer, where the participants gained new creative impulses, experience and knowledge in the field of contemporary visual art. The event included an accompanying activity GEO-Caching, an interactive game based on GPS coordinates designed for parents with children.
