“5K – five cultural spaces, one story” is a cultural‑tourism project rooted in heritage, linking five distinct cultural spaces in Kurzeme – Bārta, Nīca, Rucava, the Curonian Kings, also known as Curonian chieftains (kuršu ķoniņi) and the Suiti – within the European Capital of Culture 2027 programme. The project invites visitors to explore what makes each space unique, as well as the threads that connect them.<\/p>
From February to September, five seasonal events highlight themes characteristic of each cultural space and their contemporary interpretations: February in Nīca – “Evening Gatherings and Carnival Masks”, April at the Curonian Kings cultural space – “Family Roots”, May in Bārta – “Traditional Costume and Identity”, July in Rucava – “St Anna’s Day – Flavours and Stories” and September with Suiti – “St Michael’s Day”.<\/p>
Each cultural centre hosts the “Traveller’s Exhibition”, which ties the five experiences into one narrative. Visitors become “exhibition travellers”, uncovering the shared story by moving through all five locations.<\/p>
By presenting these cultural spaces as parts of a single journey, the project strengthens cultural tourism, raises awareness of traditional culture and connects local heritage with international perspectives.<\/p>
