Strengthening the City Neighbourhood and Local Community with Cultural Development. Potential of City Cultural Centres
Tihomir ŽILJAK
Sažetak
Neighbourhoods and local communities are places where
faith, solidarity and tolerance is built, learning and creative
expression developed, but can also be places where people
put up fences and separate themselves from others and
those who are different. Local cultural centres can help
preserve the differences and strengthen internal connections
in addition to building bridges towards other communities.
Not only are bonds among people sharing space created in
these centres but also spiritual alliances made and
intellectual support given which cross borough and city
boundaries. Transforming cultural into sociocultural capital
opens up great possibilities for centres. They were
established on the tradition of popularisation of knowledge,
cultural accessibility and participation of citizens in different
forms of creativity as well as encouragement of intellectual
curiosity. Cultural potential with regard to the local or city
community can be best realised through activities developed
along the lines of cultural and sociocultural animation.
