Kreativitätsschule ("school of creativity") Bergisch Gladbach e. V. was founded almost 50 years ago and has continued to expand in line with new social challenges. It currently runs a total of 7 cultural organisations under its own management, each of which reaches very different target groups.  

The ‘Profile: Socioculture’ funding programme has enabled a necessary development process to take place with regard to the networking and further development of the three largest cultural organisations: Creativity School, Krea Youth Club and Social Network. Permanent and freelance employees were involved in order to establish practice-orientated and forward-looking structures and areas of activity.  

Seven project phases were part of the development process: from a mobile maker space to further training for young cultural coaches, a symposium on the topic of ‘Gender, Diversity & Sexual Diversity’, nationwide networking and the development of a new mission statement.

...culture for everyone! This means positively shaping the lives of many people through cultural resources in dialogue with creative artists and giving them the opportunity to locate themselves in their environment, to actively participate, express themselves and identify with art, dance, performance, music and digital media.
