WHO WE ARE – ORGANIZERS

A group of young international volunteers that fell in love with Poland and Łódź, we want to support the development of the intercultural dialogue in our city. 

Łódź is the third largest city in Poland with a post-industrial history, experiencing recent growth of multiculturalism. With our project, we are building networks of international and intercultural community in order to bring people together through art and culture.

Let's break together the stereotypes and prejudices related to foreigners and foreign culture! 

International Boat of Culture Festival is a unique non-profit initiative that aims to bring together around 3 000 Polish and international people. It will dock in Łódź, Poland on 5th of June and will be open for free visits the whole weekend. It will take place in the city center, in various locations. This is an opportunity you cannot miss!

The idea was born from the need both Polish and international community living in Łódź to:

•to raise the awareness regarding the need of intercultural education

•interact; socialize; to know each other and their cultures

to understand the difference and similarities between us

The Festival will create visibility of the international community living in Łódź. Will promote intercultural dialogue, diversity of cultures, international projects and opportunities. 

PROGRAM

workshops; free bazaar; international music concerts; photo and graphic exhibitions; intercultural meetings; international food; performances; handmade market; relax and yoga; film screening and many more…

We have the voluntary involvement of staff and performers. Although we managed to create an active and energetic group of people, we need funds to cover the technical equipment expenses and electricity bills, as well as cleaning services, insurance of the event.

Previous work:

One of our projects is Aliens in Lodz network.
