That is why it is very important that all services, especially cultural, are provided to a high standard and are available close to home. It will be created here, among others Cinema, studios and a spectacle room for 500 people, in which concerts, theater performances, but also the dance competition of children and youth or conferences will be able to take place.

The town hall assessed that the construction of a modern, municipal cultural center with a spectacle room for 500 people, a cinema with a room for nearly 150, many artistic studios and a professional recording studio are “a breakthrough investment for the local community and very awaited by residents and residents of the district.”

The two -story building at Kazimierza Gierdziejewskiego Street will be built on the set of the letter “L” due to the arrangement of the two largest rooms of the building. The first is a modern spectacular scene with the audience on the ground floor and balcony, which will accommodate 500 people. The second room is a cinema room, where in comfortable conditions 144 viewers will be able to watch film screenings. The ground floor also provides space for children who will have care for the duration of events in the auditorium or cinema rooms. Both rooms will be connected by a spacious hall, in which there will be a place for a cloakroom, cafe and sanitary facilities. There will also be a gallery with a separate entrance on the ground floor.

A dozen or so specially equipped rooms will be built there, where art, painting, sculptural, ceramic, theater, film, dance and musical classes will be organized. In addition, there will be club rooms, as well as a fully equipped recording studio. The building will also be equipped with renewable energy sources and will be available to the disabled.
