PAKOJ_202

Pakoj_202 is for restless, curious, and open-minded people. Many of our visitors have migration experience, especially from Belarus and Ukraine, but the space is open to everyone — locals, newcomers, artists, students, activists, and people simply looking for community.

We host lectures, concerts, parties, film screenings, speaking clubs, workshops, theatre projects, community meetings, and experimental events. Some formats are regular, while others appear when someone from the community brings a new idea.

No. Some events are held in Belarusian, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, or English, depending on the organizers and audience. We try to make the space understandable and welcoming for people from different linguistic backgrounds. Event language is usually mentioned in the announcement.

Yes. Pakoj_202 exists precisely so that people can create their own cultural and educational initiatives. You do not need to be a professional artist or experienced organizer. If you have an idea for a lecture, workshop, concert, discussion, screening, club, or another format, you can contact us and we will see how to make it possible.

Many events are donation-based or low-cost because accessibility is one of our core principles. Sometimes specific events may have a recommended contribution or ticket price, especially when we need to cover technical costs or support artists.

The schedule is flexible and depends on current initiatives. On average, Pakoj_202 hosts around 8–12 events per month, ranging from small workshops and speaking clubs to more crowded concerts and parties.

No. Pakoj_202 is a grassroots DIY space. We do not work like a formal cultural institution with a fixed program and hierarchy. Most things happen because people from the community initiate them, organize them, and support each other.

Yes. Volunteers help with events, communication, setup, design, promotion, hosting, and many other practical things. If you want to be involved, contact us and tell us what you would like to do.

You can support us by coming to events, sharing announcements, donating, volunteering, organizing something, or helping us connect with artists, partners, and communities. The space exists because people use it, care about it, and help it stay alive.
