Started in May 2024 CULTURHUB is a global growing community, welcoming individual culture professionals and organization representatives to join the community as partners. We are open to new applications at any time and applications are processed monthly.
Why? Response to a need, CULTURHUB is a direct answer on how to navigate the digital transformation of culture together with other professionals. Our mission is to enable concrete results by collaborative co-creation of actual productions. Professionals can share their expertise, resources and best practices as part of the larger cultural ecosystem, which can also enable direct working opportunities for partners.
CULTURHUB gives tools to explore digital productions and also their implementation to metaverse and social virtual reality through Virtual Art House. Launching in June 2025, VAH is a non-physical and fully digital culture center, which features several venues and stages for digital and virtual productions. CULTURHUB has also its dedicated non-physical working space, where online co-residency extends into a true virtual co-residency.
How? CULTURHUB virtual co-residency and community act as a think tank, laboratory and incubator to directly start co-productions and find collaborations. CULTURHUB partners have a change test and experience the VIRTUAL ART HOUSE from beginning of february 2025 in beta-testing phase. Our community and network can help to reach for the right assets, insight and support to make it happen – prior experience of VR or metaverse is NOT required.
Dare to dream and explore the future forms of culture together!
