Trzy gracje
Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Feb 28, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The idea of the "Three Graces" project originates from classical art presenting the Greek tradition of nine muses with reference to the contemporary context. It is a comprehensive initiative aiming at the development of artistic activities and cultural needs in an exceptional extend for our city with the participation of local artists together with artists from the whole country and with the use of the infrastructure resources available in Bydgoszcz (culture centers, libraries, schools and public space). We believe that only a comprehensive presentation of art, combined with science, can lead to a long lasting perception enhancement of spectators and participants of a deliberate and profound experience of art. In long term the results achieved will serve as the basis for further project development in the cultural and educational area.

The project will last three years and consist of 9 quarterly project parts. Within these parts the Three Graces will materialize as the Greek muses, symbolizing the arts, which will be the main topic during the scheduled events. Each quarter will be covered by one art discipline in order to comfortably prepare the workshops and events and reach a wide group of participants. 
In addition and in order to even further connect the project with the city of Bydgoszcz each year designers will be invited and their task will be to prepare dresses for the symbol of Bydgoszcz – “The Three Graces”. The Graces dressed up with the costumes will become and integral part of the project and raising its popularity and enhancing participation.
This journey will allow us to analyse the cultural identity of Bydgoszcz, with the participation of local, national and international artists and the local community. We want to revive the beautiful and underappreciated Three Graces monument in Bydgoszcz, which would become the symbol of our project and the cultural wealth of the city.Receipients of the cultural events
