 The “Art on Wheels” as an example of innovative solutions in cultural and educational projectsThe “Art on Wheels” project was created in 2008 by Krakow – based art historians Barbara Łepkowska and Katarzyna Wydra. Institutional support for the project is provided by the Krakow branch of the Association of Art Historians (Stowarzyszenie Historyków Sztuki). The main purpose of the project is to create a specific museum and art-exploratory space within monuments and historic places well-known to local communities and, what follows, to make local residents fully aware of the importance and value of the cultural heritage of their village, town or municipality. “Art on Wheels” creators realize the above-mentioned aims through organizing and carrying out interactive educational workshops. The classes, that usually take place in historic churches, help to explain and bring local residents closer to the foundations of the history of the art, iconography, architecture, various artistic techniques and styles, as well as the perception of a work of art, its context, essence and role. Interactive workshops also promote tourism, conservation of cultural heritage and tradition of the regions. The beneficiaries of the project are mainly the inhabitants of rural areas of the country, where opportunities to participate in cultural events are in general difficult and limited. The “Art on Wheels” project contributes to the reduction of social differences and disparities in the access to culture and helps in the promotion of the region’s tourism value as well as the conversation of local cultural heritage.
