From November 3 to 8, the CreArt Contemporary Art in Schools project continued at Liepāja Piemares Primary School. During the workshops led by artist Maija Demitere, students gained hands-on experience in photography, digital image editing, and printing techniques.
They learned how to digitally process photographs, create compositions using graphic elements, and combine them with manual printing methods to produce works on canvas. The sessions were designed to develop students’ visual thinking, encourage experimentation with different materials and technologies, and support the exploration of their own visual expression.
The CreArt Contemporary Art in Schools project in Liepāja will continue in 2026, inviting artists from various disciplines to work with local schools each semester. In total, six schools participate in the program each calendar year.
CreArt Contemporary Art in Schools is one of the activities of the Creative Europe project CreArt 3.0. The Liepāja 2027 Foundation is a partner in the project.
On Monday, November 10, in Grobiņa, at the Great Hall of the South Kurzeme Municipality Council, the Liepāja 2027 Foundation held an informational seminar about the cultural tourism co-financing competition “Land of (un)rest, Tell Us Stories!”. The event was attended by 63 participants.
On Saturday, 8 November, the Liepāja 2027 Foundation launched the second season of its international youth training and mentoring programme for the 2025/2026 academic year. This year, 24 young people from Aizpute, Grobiņa, Krote, Kuldīga, Nīca, Priekule, and Liepāja have joined the programme.
