Cultart Home/Hamza Haidam
CULTART HOME, situated in the heart of Kayseri, is a remarkable social innovation hub with a distinct purpose. Its primary goal is to bridge the gap between locals and their own culture, while also encouraging them to embark on a journey of discovering and immersing themselves in diverse cultures from around the globe. Nestled amidst the enchanting ambiance of historical mosques and museums, this hub serves as an ideal space for promoting cultural exchange and entrepreneurship. Through the medium of art, CULTART HOME creates a dynamic platform for entrepreneurs to showcase their cultural businesses and establish valuable connections with sponsors and fellow artists. Not only does this project support local entrepreneurs, but it also fosters a strong sense of community, enabling individuals to come together, learn from one another, and joyfully celebrate their shared heritage. The project consists of three buildings with distinct purposes. The historical medrassa has been transformed into a theater, offering a venue for artistic performances. Additionally, there are two new buildings: the cultural exchange zone and the cultural entrepreneurship zone. The cultural exchange zone provides workshops in dance, music, cooking, and art crafts, allowing participants to learn and experience different cultural forms of expression. On the other hand, the cultural entrepreneurship zone houses administrative offices, a coworking space, and dedicated areas for businesses, serving as a hub for cultural exchange entrepreneurship By nurturing a spirit of togetherness and embracing cultural exchange, the social innovation hub in Kayseri holds immense potential to positively impact the local community and extend its influence beyond its borders.
