Culture.Pl

Culture.pl provides daily fresh information on the most exciting Polish cultural events worldwide.

It is the biggest and most comprehensive source of knowledge about Polish culture – apart from event listings for Poland and beyond, it boasts a wealth of artist bios, reviews, essays, synopses and profiles of cultural institutions. This portal was created in 2001 and it is managed by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute (AMI), a government cultural institution. One of AMI's missions is to promote Polish culture throughout the world, in particular by compiling, updating and disseminating an integrated system of information – in Polish and in foreign languages – about Polish culture.

The portal's content ranges from biographies of Polish cultural personalities, through discussions of specific works, to information on cultural events, and cultural institutions and publications. The website also contains more extensive essays and articles, and concise summaries devoted to various spheres of Polish culture. Each section concerns an specific artistic field: architecture, literature, music, visual arts, film and theatre.
