The Center for Creativity (CzK) is dedicated to supporting and promoting the cultural and creative sectors in Slovenia. It offers a range of services aimed at fostering innovation and collaboration among creators, artists, and entrepreneurs.
CzK organizes various programs, including:
Currently, CzK is running a public call aimed at supporting creative industries through financial grants. Applications are open, with a deadline set for September 26, 2025. A conference will be held on September 3, 2025, at the MAO to launch this initiative and discuss the potential for sustainable development within the sector.
In September 2025, CzK will host the international symposium and summer school titled "Prebujanje upanja," addressing contemporary issues in design and architecture while fostering resilience and creativity for a sustainable future.
As part of its commitment to recognizing excellence in design, CzK invites proposals for the “Made in Slovenia” label which highlights outstanding products and projects across various creative fields. The deadline for submissions is also September 3, 2025.
The center offers structured educational workshops to help applicants prepare for public calls, taking place in Ljubljana and online in early September 2025. Following these workshops, individual consultations will provide personalized assistance.
CzK also runs a Creative Incubator program, providing mentoring and coaching to emerging projects. The fourth edition is set to culminate with a Demo Day on June 18, 2025, showcasing selected creative brands.
CzK collaborates with various partners, including the Museum of Architecture and Design (MAO) and international networks to expand its reach and impact. Through its activities, it strives to strengthen the cultural landscape and offer new opportunities for creators in Slovenia.
Interested individuals can register as creators, mentors, or businesses through the CzK platform to access the latest opportunities and resources in the creative sector.
