One of the main characteristics of the present era is growth of interdependence of the relationship between social power on one side and knowledge and creative utilization of human potentials on the other. Organisations, based on values as creativeness, openness, flexibility, dissimilarity and respect of differences are becoming holders of social development. This is the base on which we have designed the project of establishment of the first Residential Art Center in Slovenia. The Art Center site is located in an abandoned Ex-YU military guardhouse near the Slovenian- Hungarian border. After it was abandoned in 1991 it was left to dilapidation. In the nineties, the Onej Society started to carry out the activities of establishing an Art center. The municipality of Moravske Toplice purchased the abandoned guardhouse from the Ministry of Defense and established the Art Center institute together with the municipality of Šalovci, the Onej Society, Association of Slovenian Artists and the Society of Prekmurje and Prlekija Artists. The first part of a project was financed with Phare-CREDO resources. During the implementation of the Phare CREDO project the renovation of the guardhouse building and foundry construction was successfully accomplished. Apart from renovation of the guardhouse and construction of foundry, the construction of artistic studios and accommodation facilities were partly finished last year. With the construction and the establishment of the Art Centre by the settlement Središèe on Gorièko an important infrastructure object is acquired. With its finalization we have acquire a multi-functional facility which represent the basis for implementation of numerous creative and educational projects from various areas of cultural/artistic creation. Organisational and creative know-how, which we are developing in the Art Centre are available to many organisations and individuals on both side of the border and widely. For this rural and the poorest area of Slovenia the Art Center plays very important role for local community, and especially for young people. By definition, main activity of the Art Centre falls within culture and art. The centre's capacities are available for young people in the field of culture and arts, offering them an opportunity to implement their artistic projects. We have adequate working studios, accommodation and of course enough place enabling the Centre's guests to socialize and exchange experience and ideas. The Art Centre is a multifunctional facility providing creative atmosphere to numerous guests-artists from Slovenia as well as other countries. The Art Centre wishes to remain open for new ideas in other areas and for the implementation of interdisciplinary projects. Information and video-art equipment are available to artists using new technologies for their creations. The establishment of an information centre is also part of the project. It will collect and distribute information on all important cultural/artistic events in the centre as well as in Gorièko and the neighbouring regions, and gradually also internationally. The establishment of the Web page is planned in the nearest future, providing updated information on the Art Centre and projects planned to be carried out, as well as the possibility of constant links with numerous creators worldwide. Information infrastructure in the Art Center also enables the implementation of artistic projects on the Internet. Artistic foundry operates since 2001. With the construction of an artistic foundry an important infrastructural benefit for sculptors as well as for other interested people is acquired. It is first artistic foundry in the wider regional area. Educational activities in the Art Centre will be carried out on different levels. They are including education of artists under the mentorship of experienced colleagues and workshops, intended to evoke the creation spirit in the wider population of different age groups from the region as well as from wider area, including the neighbouring countries. Workshops are a good opportunity to connect the offer of the Art Center with the existing touristic offer of the region. In the summer months, most of the Art Centre capacities are used for children and youth workshops and colonies. The function of the Centre is primarily used to provide the infrastructure necessary for the colonies (studios, equipment, materials) and high quality mentors. The premises of the Art Centre are also available for organizing various courses and trainings, among them on green-style of life. The Art Center promotes environmentally friendly projects and use of environmentally friendly materials for projects. The Art Center is situated in beautiful natural area in surrounding of forests, hills and fields and teaches through art and culture to take care about our natural environment.
