The Children\u2019s House, based in the Ben\u010di\u0107 Art neighbourhood of Rijeka, is a unique cultural centre for parents. Housed in the aesthetically distinctive brick building of a former tobacco barn and factory, it has been transformed from a dilapidated pigeon loft into a place for children to have fun, explore their imaginations, goof around and create. The renovation project was a complex one that involved the current iteration being built as a \u201chouse within a house\u201d, with the old interior being torn out and a new building constructed within the remaining walls. As an urban platform for informal cultural education and a new leisure spot for parents and children, the venue and programmes of the Children\u2019s House are a constant topic of discussion.
\nIt focuses on art and culture in a broader sense, especially in terms of new and innovative practices in reading, cinema, theatre and contemporary art \u2013 this reflects its original purpose of providing an alternative approach to creating content for children\u2019s entertainment, informal education and new models of institutional organisation.
\nThe Children\u2019s House comprises multipurpose areas of various types, but its activities can be divided into three types: formal programmes (regular activities in the form of workshops, storytelling sessions, screenings, plays, ad-hoc activities, festivals, etc), educational programmes for preschool and school children (educational games, guided tours and talks, screenings, plays, etc) and an informal programme (daily opening hours, playroom, birthdays, catering, etc), all of which make it a unique and decidedly multi-layered cultural phenomenon for Rijeka.
\nIt also houses the Central Children\u2019s Library \u2013 the Stribor Children\u2019s Department of the Rijeka City Library, which hosts most of the storytelling sessions, talks, authors\u2019 conferences and creative workshops. Art-Kino regularly holds its comprehensive School at the Cinema and spin-off Nursery Schools at the Cinema programmes at the Children\u2019s House, along with the regular animated and feature film programme for the general public.
\nOne of the Children\u2019s House\u2019s special activities is organising its own large-scale events, most notably the Children\u2019s Good Book Week (April), Slide Festival \u2013 Active Summer Holiday for Children (June, July) and the Ben\u010di\u0107 Winter Tale (December), which are all festivals featuring dozens of separate activities and a wealth of positive energy.
\nThe programme of the Children\u2019s House was developed as part of the Rijeka 2020 \u2013 European Capital of Culture programme, and the building was designed by the architect Sa\u0161a Randi\u0107.
\nThe Rijeka City Library, Art-Kino, the Rijeka City Puppet Theatre and the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art Rijeka have jointly contribute to the Children\u2019s House programme.
