ŽIVA ŠKOLA is a free educational arts program for youth aged 18 to 30, focusing on community and arts. The program's foundations include collectivity, resource exchange, and art as both an activist tool and a therapeutic method. Participants learn about community and contemporary art at the Živi Atelje DK, a centre for creativity, experimentation, friendship, and collaboration, located in the studio where the Zagreb sculptor Vera Dajht Kralj worked for almost 60 years. The program is run by Jutro and Živi Atelje DK, and Živi Atelje’s key component, the Women to Women collective, through ongoing dialogue, rotating roles and knowledge exchange. Using various methods and techniques, across four sessions in April and May 2024, we will explore topics such as otherness, sustainability, community, multilingualism, identity, memory, heritage and equality.

The School of Radical Education focuses on empowering the community and connecting museums with it, because we are stronger together.
