OPEN CALLS

OPPORTUNITIES IN THE PROJECTS

European Capital of Culture 2028

Get involved in the projects from the winning bid — as artists, creatives, cultural organizations, local communities, or technical suppliers.

For communities ➡ Kul.turista

Kul.turista gives residents the opportunity to take part in creating the programme of České Budějovice 2028. It allows communities to develop their own ideas and projects that strengthen relationships among locals and their connection to the place where they live.

For schools ➡ Creative Minds

We support the development of creativity in children, pupils, and students. We bring creative education programmes directly into primary and secondary school classrooms. The current offer for schools will be published in autumn 2025.

For young collectives ➡ Young Creators

Do you want your cultural collective to step out of the corner and connect with other groups? Do you want to share your projects, learn from others, and find inspiration for your next activities? The Young Creators platform is here for you.

For self-advocates with disabilities ➡ Accessibility Alliance

The Accessibility Alliance is our advisory and consulting platform supporting efforts to make culture accessible to all. It is made up of people with disabilities and people from organisations that provide them with services and support.

For residents who enjoy writing ➡ City Diary

The City Chronicle is a chronicle created by the residents themselves. They choose the topics — they comment on what interests them, what is changing in the city, what stays the same, their memories, or their wishes for the future. In 2025, the project is edited by Ondřej Lipár and illustrated by Lenka Pužmanová.

For residents who want to lend a helping hand ➡ Volunteering

We are looking for volunteers! Join us — you’ll gain new experience, contacts, and the opportunity to see behind the scenes of cultural events.
