Open Creative Space is a cultural project that brings together a physical creative space and an online resource for collaborative music and interdisciplinary work. The project creates an open environment where children, young people, and creative practitioners — musicians, performers, sound artists — can meet, rehearse, experiment, and share the results of their work free of charge with a wide audience in Ukraine and Europe.
About the Project
At the heart of the project are accessibility and community. We are building a rehearsal and creative base with open access, where cultural activity becomes part of the everyday life of the community rather than a privilege for a select few.
The project is complemented by an online platform that documents the processes, events, and outcomes of the space, ensuring a long-term impact and international visibility.

Sustainability & Values
The physical space will continue to operate after the project concludes, and the online platform will ensure that all materials remain preserved and accessible for future initiatives, collaborations, and educational programmes.
The project is implemented in line with sustainability principles: low resource consumption, reuse of materials, and a priority on digital forms of content distribution.
Partners & Support
The project is implemented by a Ukrainian organisation in collaboration with a partner from the European Union as part of a cultural cooperation support programme.
