October Children's Month
Start date: May 1, 2013,

October Children’s Month is an event that aims to connect our youth to culture and cultural institutions. Every weekend in October museums, theatres, concert halls and creativity schools open their doors and organise special activities for the children from 4 to 13 years, free of admission. Introducing children and parents/grandparents to the arts and to cultural institutions, companies and individual artists in the cultural environment of children. Encouraging institutions to create special children’s programmes. Connecting institutions as well as individual artists: on local, regional, national and international level.The partners represent a large high quality network of cultural institutions and individual artists. There is a cooperation agreement between the four agents from the four countries. Two agents are connected to the European Cultural Capitals of Riga and San Sebastian. During the project period the partners aim to set a quality standard for cultural activities for families during the October children’s Month. For the communication one European website with links to social media will be constructed. Every country works with the same name of the project, the same logo (Okki and Dokki) and the same colours on the frame site. The project starts in 2013 with four partners. Our objective is an international October Children’s Month in 15 European countries in 2020, and every country in the long term . The possibilities of international exchange of productions and persons and international dialogues will grow during this period. Artists and theatre groups will travel between the four participation countries. International dialogue is encouraged through conferences, meetings, workshops and publications.This will create a mutual experience of the European culture and stimulate children to reflect on their European identity. Sharing cultural experiences among countries emphasises our shared European values instead of our differences.
