Cooperation with organizations begins with the submission of relevant documents, i.e. an application, including the entity/group's action plan for 12 months (with particular emphasis on cultural and creative activities addressed to the city's residents (especially seniors and people under 30), readiness to obtaining external funds, the possible degree of use of the received space, a plan to take actions aimed at making the organization independent).
