Together with our friends from Teatr Brama in Goleniów, we are embarking on an exciting project year with a new Polish-German programme focus
More than a year after we met for the first time in Greifswald's twin town Goleniów just behind Sczcecin, we can now finally announce that we are ready to go: Here we go! Together with our new friends from Teatr Brama, we have successfully written an application for EU funding in the Interreg VI A project. A project that aims to better understand and revitalise the Polish-German border region ‘Pomerania’. ID:Pomerania will closely accompany us from 2025 to 2027, we have big plans. We would like to take this opportunity to cordially invite you to the opening event on 1 March 2025 at 6 pm in the STRAZE. We will present the project, Teatr Brama will show its spectacular music/theatre performance ‘Voices’, there will be music and a few surprises. Come and join us!
ID:Pomerania is an innovative cultural initiative with a focus on researching, revitalising and developing the identity of a region that has been shaped by a chequered history in which it has been repeatedly torn apart. The project partners are based in Western Pomerania and West Pomerania (Zachodniopomorskie). In the coming years, they will explore how the future of our region can be shaped together in a spirit of social co-operation. Goleniów and Greifswald both have a thriving cultural and social life and have already entered into a close partnership in many areas. However, there is still a need for more space for dialogue and genuine exchange between groups and organisations active in both cities. To address this, we will use artistic means to explore what is missing in our region and experiment with forms of expression to find out how socioculture and community-based approaches can contribute to a local identity anchored in our fundamental democratic values and human rights. Last but not least, our aim is to mutually enrich the cultural landscape and thus the quality of life on both sides of the border in order to further enhance our beautiful region and increase its attractiveness.
ID:Pomerania is a cultural project in the Interreg VI A Mecklenburg-Vorpommern / Brandenburg / Polska 2021-2027 cooperation programme, which is being organised by Teatr Brama and the STRAZE socio-cultural centre together with Gmina Goleniów as the lead partner and the University and Hanseatic City of Greifswald as an associated partner.
