The Project
From Slaughterhouse to KULTurCAMPus
With the idea of the KULTurCAMPus, the Schlachthof Wiesbaden Cultural Centre is breaking new ground in socio-cultural collaboration. For 30 years, four key cultural venues have shaped the “Kulturpark Wiesbaden”: Schlachthof, Kreativfabrik, Skatehalle and Kontext. Yet their future is uncertain – at the very least, not secured – and clear long-term perspectives are needed. The programme provides the space to develop a sustainable framework for new, cooperative and future-oriented collaboration among the cultural organisations, without taking away their autonomy. The goal is to safeguard the Kulturpark as a vibrant site of urban culture in the long term. Its significance as a driving force of a diverse socio-cultural city culture can only be maintained – or strengthened – if the individual institutions themselves remain strong. To this end, the “role of culture in a city” must be discussed in dialogue with local policymakers.
