Pol’and’Rock Festival is a huge summer music festival whichko jubilee 30th edition was held in the first days of August 2024r at the airport Broczyno near Czaplinek . It is worth mentioning that the festival was held in Kostrzyn-on-Odra for 16 years, during which time it hosted artists from Poland and abroad on five stages: Large Stage, Small Stage, Lech Stage, Viva Kultura and Night Stage of the Academy of Fine Arts.
As the organizers write about themselves, “The organizer of the Festival is the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity Foundation, which with this summer concert wants to thank all the volunteers and people supporting its January final activities. The first festival was held in 1995 in Czymanowo on Lake Żarnowieckie.
West Pomerania Festival Zone
The West Pomeranian Zone in the festival town was divided into several sub-zones: book, science, sports, leisure, health, promotion of the region. The program included artistic, educational, fun and recreational events. Animations for children, meetings with ecology, poetry afternoon, fascinating lectures and even first aid training, psychological consultations.
This is also where our fantastic UPcycling ecological workshops took place at the Space Workshop
Upcycling Workshops in the ECOsmic Zone
It was a great pleasure for us to conduct upcycling workshops in the West Pomeranian zone of the Pol’and’Rock festival. During these workshops, together with the participants, we showed how to create unique “festival bags” with our own hands from second-hand t-shirts and decorated bags created from post-commercial mesh nets. They were die-cut with the utmost care according to our best designs and then went to the sheltered workshop, where they were sewn with incredible care, dedication, love and due respect to the raw material. They were created thanks to West Pomerania’s openness and understanding of upcycling and the need to recycle post-promo no longer needed materials.
See you next year!
