From 11 to 17 June 2018, Krakow and Katowice will host the annual meeting of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network. Before the Congress, working groups (in each city) will meet in the framework of macroregional creative cooperation, corresponding to seven categories of UNESCO Creative Cities (Music, Literature, Design, Gastronomy, Media Arts, Film, Crafts & Folk Art).

We invite you to Katowice for the first open debate. The meetings preceding the UNESCO Creative Cities Congress are an ideal opportunity not only to bring the subject of the Agenda 2030 to the people of Katowice, but also to creative discussion among representatives of the creative industries.
