These issues will be taken up during workshop meetings, interdisciplinary presentations and events, which will acquaint the audience with the work of the invited authors.

ARTISTIC CRITICISM The workshops are to give the participants an ability to intentionally shape the text according to the needs.

CULTURAL ANIMATION FAMA is not only artistic performance, but also a space of the city and its dwellers. It is not only the promenade and the students, but the local housing estates as well: adults and school youths. It is time to ajar the door of their houses and listen what they have to tell us. The aim of the project is to reach indirectly the city dweller with the artistic offer, to integrate and motivate the dwellers in making them interested in culture and actively participate in the artistic events.
