The exhibition “Images of Change: Bydgoszcz Artists Facing the Challenges of Agenda 2030” is now open!

Images of Change” is an artistic response by Bydgoszcz-based artists to the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals that make up the so-called Agenda 2030 – a blueprint for global action for a better, fairer and more sustainable future.

Each work of art is a personal interpretation of one goal: fighting poverty, climate protection, gender equality, access to education or health, among others. They are not illustrations, but moving, aesthetic and emotional comments on challenges that affect us here and now.

The exhibition was created as part of the Bydgoszcz City of Music UNESCO program, because we believe that art – like music – can be a space for change. It can inspire action, move, open eyes and create awareness.

The exhibition will remain permanently in the space of Music Cafe Szpulka (Municipal Cultural Center in Bydgoszcz) to accompany residents in their daily life – not as a background, but as an invitation to reflection and action.

We hope that these images will stir something in you as well – and encourage you to live your life in accordance with ideas that really matter. We invite you to come to the Spool to get acquainted with the exhibition!
