On 4-5 February 2023, the first meeting of the Artistic Council of the Konrad and Paweł Jarodzki Artistic Residency Programme took place in Krzyżowa.


Artistic Residency is a new, long-term project carried out by the Krzyzowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe together with 66P Subjective Cultural Institution from Wrocław. The aim of the programme is to run an international residency for socially engaged artists in Krzyzowa in the spirit of Konrad and Paweł Jarodzki's values. The programme is intended to serve international artistic exchange and promote a culture of dialogue and understanding. During the meeting, the Council not only worked out the details of the new programme, but also became acquainted with the historical heritage and activities of the Krzyzowa Foundation.


The Konrad and Paweł Jarodzki Artistic Residency Programme was established thanks to a donation from Renata and Rafał Jarodzki and Dorota Jarodzka-Śródka.

A Polish-German youth exchange between Wladyslaw Broniewski High School in Koszalin and Freiherr-vom-Stein-Schule from Rösrath lasted from 23.1.23 to 27.1. The exchange involved 30 students. 

The exchange focused on topics related to first aid. On this occasion, the students were able not only to acquire the necessary knowledge of lifesaving, but on this occasion also to get to know better their peers from the neighboring country. On the last day of the exchange, participants worked together to create a creative and multithreaded short film about their experiences with the subject.

From January 23 to 27, 28 students from Henriette Breymann Comprehensive School and Zespół Szkół Techniczno-Ekonomicznych met for the first time for an exchange in Kreisau. First on the agenda were integration games, language animation and getting to know the history and place of Krzyżowa. In workshops, the participants dealt with the topic "Identity - European Identity" and, as an "activist group", chose social topics that were particularly relevant to them and worked on them in small international groups.

For the Ukrainian School in Warsaw, Krzyżowa was supposed to be the site of a "Green School," but the December snow turned the project into a "White School."
For a week, teachers of the Ukrainian school held regular classes with their students in Krzyżowa, supplemented by tours of the region and art workshops. Carpentry, painting and acrobatics workshops were offered to rock the youngsters' creative talents.
