The White Night for Product Creators and Designers project is realized by the team of Atelierul de Creație Association, a non-profit organization that has been supporting for more than seven years the alternative approaches to presenting design and art works in new spaces of culture consumption. Its merit has been confirmed by the inclusion of this project among the finalists at the Civil Society Gala, Art and culture and Impact sections, the Elle Decoration Gala, and the financing received from the AFCN and the Ministry of Culture. Moreover, its volunteers have been finalists at the National Volunteer Gala, Art and culture and section.
This edition represents a public-private partnership: the organizer – Atelierul de Creație Association – transforms the exhibit hall of the University of Architecture and Urbanism Ion Mincu into a space suitable for presenting the latest author pieces created in Romania.
