Project title

Spațiul experimental pentru artă și stare de bine de la Liceul Teoretic ,,Onisifor Ghibu”

Description of initiative

The art and well-being space it is a space created through a long term co-creation process that took place in several stages involving the school community - teachers, students, parents - alongside with artists, designers, architects, landscapers, researchers in psychology and public health. The participatory process was facilitated, under the coordination of the Cluj Cultural Centre, by a multidisciplinary team from Urban Scale Interventions (UK), specialized in urban innovation projects focused on community, culture and well-being. The space was designed to stimulate the emotional and cognitive development of children through art, play and sensory exploration. The initiative of the space is part of the Art & Well-being European project and the Learning QUB program.
