About Us

The civic association PUART GALLERY was founded in Púchov on 17 March 2009. Since 2011, its activities were also implemented in Bratislava and other Slovak cities.

The aim of the association is to create conditions and opportunities for development of personality, skills and interests, to promote and develop arts and culture in Slovakia. A means to this end is organization of leisure activities, cultural events, as well as publishing and educational activities.

The idea of joining enthusiasts for arts and culture was created by the artist from Púchov, Roman Hvizdák. Since 2006, he is actively involved in organizing events and implementation of projects, particularly in the field of visual arts.
