An audio story walk inspired by the facades of Kuldīga’s historic buildings and the stories of its residents. Many places in Kuldīga are different in the minds of the city’s inhabitants than they are in reality: furniture is sold in “Talsu meat shop”, the shop called “Bread loaf” is home to a bar, the wind is really whistling in “Windy”, and the Kuldīga Culture Centre is currently located in a supermarket. During the Homo Novus Festival, we will walk this story-walk together, but it will remain accessible to Kuldīga residents and visitors via a phone app izi.travel:

Upside Down Kuldīga was commissioned by community art commissioners from Kuldīga in the framework of the “DemArt” project. “DemArt” is an international European project that aims to democratize the art funding and commissioning practices in local municipalities and other organizations in charge of culture, as well as empower local communities to support their cultural needs.

*For those who do not live in Kuldīga and are interested in the work, departure by bus from the Riga Festival Center on September 3 at 14:00. The number of places is limited.

ACCESSIBILITY
During the performance, you will have to move from the Kuldīga City Hall to the Kuldīga Cultural Center along Liepājas Street, which is about 2km long. The street is flat and without curbs.
