tytuł artykułu 97 Success of a project depends on multiple factors. In our case, the moment of selecting women participants through audition was key. Their charisma, teamwork skills and creativity influenced the character of Women’s Wola. When working on a project, the director shouldn’t dish out ready-made stage solutions. Her role is an advisory one – she may give tips but should not build the characters. It is the role of the participants to find stage energy within themselves, to experience a brainstorm. target groups / methods The target group were women of different ages and social statuses living in or associated with the district of Wola. The main methods used in the workshops were drama and improvisation, which mostly appeal to the intuition and imagination of participants. They teach how to be active and open, stress teamwork, sensitise. Our project was covered by TVN’s Uwaga (Taka jest Wola Kobiet), TVN Warszawa (two documentaries) and Warsaw’s Photo: Piotr Haweman (4) newspapers including Życie Warszawy and Gazeta Wyborcza. funding The project was part-funded by the District of Wola. Project partners included Chłodna 25, which offered us space for rehearsals (where we also opened our production), and Działdowska Cultural Centre. challenges The only problems we encountered were logistical – the rehearsals were held during the day, often forcing participants to reschedule their routine. Some women found it a challenge to improvise during the first rehearsals with the complete script. However, their extraordinary motivation, acting talent and adaptive skills allowed them to quickly master the script. Our focus was always on improvisation and wordplay. Documentary Cooperative Association The association was founded in 2008 by a group of people associated with the University of Warsaw’s Documentary Laboratory. What brought us together was a passion for making documents. We have so far mounted four photography exhibitions: Two Generations, One Perspective. The association’s theatre projects, including Romeo and Juliet 40 Years Later, carried out with senior citizens from Mokotów, or the project Panowie Wolą (another play on words using the name of the district, roughly translatable as “Gentlemen Prefer”), conceived as a response to the women’s version, are very popular among participants. This year, as part of the Orange Academy Foundation, the association completed an extensive project called Wola Doc, a series of photography, film, theatre and visual workshops for young people.

98 Partnerships with Rural Community Centres Partnerships with Rural Cultural Centres is run by the Złocieniec Cultural Centre. The project involves partnerships aimed at mobilising rural communities to undertake cultural education efforts. In 2008 we implemented the project in eight out of nine rural community centres in the commune of Złocieniec. The project was funded by the Rural Development Foundation. w e were inspired by a desire to create change, to do something for ourselves and for others. As most of the children were spending their summer vacation at home, we got the idea to organise their free time together in a fun, safe and practical way. We wanted to do something to keep them away from the computer screen, a habit that has grown to epidemic proportions. Together, we undertook a number of projects in the local rural community centre. the project The winning concepts included: Extremely Unforgettable Bobrowo (Bobrowo Village Council), Botanical Garden in Cieszyn (Cieszyno Village Council), Plenty of Fish in the Pond (Warniłęg Village Council), Painting Versus Painting (Rural Community Centre in Rzęśnica) and Flower-bedded Village (Rural Community Centre in Stary Worów). Stawno Village Council’s Marriage was another winner. Each project was worth 2000 PLN. The central idea of the projects was to organise activities aimed at bringing an aesthetic quality to rural areas and improving their image. Hence the idea to plant daisies and forget-me-nots in Bobrów. In Cieszyn a botanical garden was established. In Warniłęg the pond area was cleaned. In Rzęśnica a 30-meter-long grey concrete fence was repainted. Stary Worów gained several flower beds. There was a lot of work and plenty of fun activities, of which we have an extensive photographic record. target groups / methods The projects were mostly aimed at children and youth. We worked according to a previously arranged schedule of meetings, in which we included the start and end times of activities, rest and meal break times, and the times of joint work sessions. We also scheduled in trips to attractive local destinations, to garden and spa parks, as well as meetings with residents, artists and organisers of cultural and artistic events in the region. We regularly updated local and regional media on the progress of our projects.
