The project will give new impulse to deprived territories of Zarasai and Daugavpils regions. Culture and creative approach will create solutions to make people from deprived territories in Zarasai-Daugavpils regions more active, creative, more business and socially oriented and ultimately to change their mind about leaving. During the project living conditions of inhabitants of deprived territories will be improved and they will become more satisfied with area they live. During the project following activities will be organized: 1. Socializing people from deprived territories of Zarasai and Daugavpils regions via organizing cultural events, providing transportation to take part in activities taking place away from the project territory. 2. Creating conditions for creative education and unlocking potential of members of deprived communities via upgrading and equipping social spaces such as Zarasai cultural centre’s inner yard (with outdoor umbrellas, furniture, bean bags, air bunks, LED lamps and sound equipment), purchasing of the portable stage for outdoor events in deprived territories, modernization of the technologies of Daugavpils Region Cultural Center "Vārpa" with purchasing a new projector, reconstruction of the Skrindu family museum premises and building the culinary room, improving it with household appliances, furniture and kitchen equipment for culinary workshops, purchasing of felting tables in Naujene Local History Museum, teaching Lithuanian – Latvian traditional crafts such as ceramics, weaving, wicker weaving, woodworking and felting, organizing a lab and workshops of popular arts (photography, packaging and advertising design, DJ’ing, stage service), traditional dances. 3. Experience exchange of cultural organizations, government officials, start-up’s, artists and people to share the best practices regarding creative approaches to sell artwork and know-how how cultural organizations can contribute in decreasing level of emigration and to create better economic and social conditions in the area.
