Project Description:

The aim of the project is to build memories for the present and the future. Within this framework, we enrich the lives of people living in Bácska or visiting us with adult and children's programs and with presenting the results of research related to 20th-century modern and contemporary art. We provide a unique and fascinating insight into the contemporary world of Bačka by developing our city loyalty card system that promotes our collections, exhibitions, publications, research, education and cultural programs. We highlight topics through the lens of modern and contemporary art that affect our society and our individual lives. The Partners have put together a very rich cultural entertainment and education program, which will be jointly implemented over 2 years. The Temerin castle complex will be complemented with the revitalization of the castle park, the creation of the open-air modern and contemporary sculpture park demonstrating the harmony of nature and art.
