Przekrój Projects

The Przekrój Foundation supports a variety of projects that engage the public in thoughtful and meaningful ways. From mounting ambitious, large-scale art installations and festivals, to sponsoring comedy shows, exhibitions, and film screenings, we hope to spread joy and build community—and inspire others to do the same.
