Founded in August 2011, Alternative Cultural Center Gračanica undoubtedly is today’s most prominent independent cultural center in Kosovo, wider region included. With over 60 events per year, ACCG is one of the key factors of mental and spiritual wellbeing of local creative individuals, making no difference between ethnicities or social strata. It represents a hangout spot for all interested membe
rs of the broadest public, and a hospitable and accessible space for artists, both academically trained and with no formal training whatsoever, that they can use to inform their practice or create their art. With a variety of its regular activities and programs, such as art colonies, exhibitions, jam sessions, workshops and trainings, and recently art history lectures and educational movie nights under the flag of ACC film club Movie Wednesday, free guitar and drum lessons for the local youth, as well as occasional guest performances by musicians from parts of the world as diverse as Israel or Belgium and one-shot or impromptu events open for broad public and encouraging creative fun, ACC persists in its efforts to keep "underground Kosovo" alive and visible.
