Successful campaigns from Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia

Well,

It's time to present last part of successful campaigns related to culture subject. Let's start then:

Kreaciaki. Opowiem Ci bajkę. (Eng: Kreaciaki. I'll tell you the story.")

That's the first Polish campaign we'd like to present you. They didn't want to collect much money, so their campaign was successful (they collected 1200 PLN and that is 100% of the amount that they want to get). "Kreaciaki" were born in 2015. It was created as part of "Generator 3.0", i.e. workshops for young culture animators. It was a crowdfunding action financing the publication of a book written and illustrated by children. On September 15, during the 15th Cultural Night, a group of children created a story that two weeks later during the Festival of Deconstruction of the Word Read! design illustrations for it. On October 12, you could see little artists at the author's meeting. And that was possible thanks to the support of 37 donators.

Poezja w Puszczy. (Eng: Poetry in the forest.)

That was another example of successful campaigns in the area of culture. Its creators tried to collect money for preparation of the second edition of the event titled "Poetry in the forest". They earned 5000 PLN thanks to 38 donators and thanks to that action, the second event took place. On a poetic walk through the Forest, participants set off from the Rousseau Manor in the company of poets: poems by Wojciech Brzoska, Mariusz Grzebalski, Marcin Ostrychacz and Piotr Janicki were heard in the Ancient Forest, which from the beginning of time was an inspiration for writers, artists and thinkers.
