Starting signal for the Kulturrucksack 2023

This year, the departments of Culture and Education and Youth, Family, School and Sport have once again put together a cultural programme for Bocholt young people aged 10 to 14.

It is packed and ready: The cultural backpack for 2023

21 activities and workshops from the fields of art, literature, film, drama, photography and music are on the programme, for which children and young people between 10 and 14 years of age can register now.

The offers have been developed together with known and new partners, and great artists and cultural actors have been recruited. The events will take place in various parts of the city.

This year, by the way, all participants will receive a "Kulturrucksack" from the City of Bocholt. However, the almost legendary "Kulturrucksack NRW" will be raffled off as usual.

Claudia Borgers from the Kulturrucksack team of the City of Bocholt is pleased: "A lot of great, creative ideas ensure that there is plenty on offer. And we are very pleased that all the projects submitted can be carried out for the young people thanks to the increased funding from the state!" This year, about 20,000 euros are available from NRW funds.

Head of Culture Thomas Waschki presented the programme: "For the city of Bocholt, culture is also youth culture. With the great events that have been set up, we also reach children and young people who are not otherwise interested in culture in the classical sense. The success of the "Kulturrucksack" in recent years proves us right. Culture is fun!
