About us
We are an interdisciplinary institution focussing on art and education, and a part of the “Grodzka Gate – NN Theatre” Centre. The programme of the House of Words is structured around the meaning of written word in cultural and social contexts.
The House of Words was created upon the foundation of the Chamber of Printing, which has operated at Żmigrod 1 St. since 2008. The programme of the House of Words aims to underline the meaning of spoken and printed word in a cultural and social context. This also covers the importance of “free speech” in the processes of social and political change. Other than events aiming to popularise the traditional book manufacture process (print, graphic design, typography), we also host events and projects that promote reading and literacy. The House of Words is located in the centre of poor and derelict Lublin, which is why many of our projects that have a social aspect to them are directed at, among others, the people from our neighbourhood.
