ARTS AND ACTION
Our project was born of the agreement three partner organizations: Eyes Wide Open -EWO- (United Kingdom); Stowarzyszenie Centrum Inicjatyw Naukowo-Kulturalnych (Poland) and Cume Foundation (Spain).
EYES WIDE OPEN -EWO-
Eyes Wide Open was founded by a group of young people and has been facilitating workshops around social themes since 2006. The group is dedicated to supporting and facilitating the development of creativity, innovative thought and talent. In a context where much of
contemporary art remains abstract and difficult for people to appreciate and understand, Eyes Wide Open calls for a return to the link between art and beauty and simultaneously fosters an awareness of the benefits of cultural diversity and service.
The group creates educational workshops for people of all ages and abilities and aims to be a lively place for exchanging ideas and discussions, on art and culture whilst building up steady relationships between people in the local community and making art more accessible.
Our projects are collaborative in nature and all those who take part are given the opportunity to make, display and explain their work.
