CREATIVE EUROPEAN ARCHIVES

Creative European ARCHives as innovative cultural hubs is a project, financed by UE, developed by Banco di Napoli Foundation as the leader of a partnership composed of Icarus Hrvatska, University of Peloponnese, Regionaal Historisch Centrum Limburg. 

Archives enshrine records and stories that transmit a rich heritage of popular traditions and habits that are part of our European culture. CREARCH will transmit them through a creative storytelling based on visual, digital and transmedia performances, where the public will learn how European citizens developed exchanges, built shared values and created a common heritage as a consequence of migrations, trade relations and travels across borders. In an era where migrations to Europe and contacts between people are frequent, EU citizens and migrants will discover together, learn from past experiences and understand how our culture, traditions and heritage have been shaped during centuries of contacts between Europeans and between Europeans and non-Europeans. CREARCH will implement a comprehensive strategy of audience development for European historical archives.
