High tension at the 6th Zittau Culture Night
An explosive combination—On Saturday, October 29, 2016, jazz meets technology at the HSZG’s high voltage facility.
There’s crackling and sparks flying—and the music is catchy—in the high voltage facility at Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences. With its “Jazz Meets Technology” program, the HSZG will offer visitors pure musical excitement on Saturday, October 29, 2016, at 6:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. as part of the 6th Zittau Culture Night. When the jazzy melodies and rhythms of the “Mandau Quartet” combine with energetic experiments at Hochwaldstraße 2a, there’s not only something for the eyes but also something for the ears. An event that keeps you on your toes—a colorful program awaits all culture lovers and night owls until 11:00 p.m. at a total of 21 venues throughout the city of Zittau.
Cultural and educational institutions, such as the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences, as well as churches in the city of Zittau, open their doors and gates in the evening from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. and welcome their guests with very special offerings.
Visitors can get to know the venues better while strolling around, listen to music and readings, sing along, or view exhibitions, historical manuscripts, and plays. Guided tours offer fascinating discoveries, and guests will have the opportunity to make their own jewelry.
Young culture enthusiasts can try their hand at an instrument workshop in the building that will house the future district music school or embark on an animal-themed treasure hunt at the Villa Children’s and Youth Center.
The event is organized by the Zittau City Administration in collaboration with the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences and other city institutions.
