The first conference of the project will explore and question the faith thinking of communities that cross the life of theaters from all over Europe. A moment of listening and active sharing to create new ideas for the future. You who are part of our community are invited to participate by connecting to Zoom, to interact with the project team, share your questions, bring your point of view on the Faith and its many facets.

Teatr Powszechny in Warsaw would like to invite everyone to take part in the World Refugee Day (20th of June) which was established by the United Nations General Assembly almost 20 years ago. For the last few years, we have been celebrating this day in a special way, by organizing many artistic and social events and by providing many public institutions (theatres, museums, universities, religious organizations) with the international refugee flag, designed by a Syrian artist Yara Said. An orange flag with a black stripe has been a universal symbol of respect towards migrants and acknowledgement of them and their fight for human rights. The flag represents life jackets worn by thousands of people going through the seas to escape war, hunger, and political repression.

The international project FACE TO FAITH will last until 2023 and it is being co-organized by Teatr Powszechny and six other theaters and festivals: ANTI Contemporary Art Festival (Finland), Divadlo pod Palmovkou (Czech Republic), Gesher Theater (Israel), Jam Factory Art Center (Ukraine), Sommerblut Kulturfestival e.V. (Germany) - the coordinator of the project, and Teatro dei Venti (Italy). FACE TO FAITH is a two-year project devoted to the idea of faith in modern society. It is being organized as a part of the European Union’s “Kreatywna Europa” (Creative Europe) program.

Powszechny Theatre, Strefa WolnoSłowa Foundation and Centre of Migration Research (University of Warsaw) are Polish partners of project „Atlas of Transitions. New geographies for a cross-cultural Europe”.
