As a project of the Berlin Leben Foundation, URBAN NATION aims to make urban and street art visible and accessible to everyone through a variety of offerings. Participation and own creativity are asked for and strengthened in our educational formats.
Therefore URBAN NATION is more than a museum. With its diverse programming, URBAN NATION links indoor and outdoor space – museum and city – and promotes dialogue between art and neighborhood. The project Stadtraum!Plus of the Stiftung Berliner Leben facilitates the exchange between Berlin actors and URBAN NATION and creates a variety of educational opportunities.
URBAN NATION is a place of cultural education with workshops and other innovative educational formats. We are active in the museum, in the museum’s workshop and throughout the city – e.g. through participatory mural designs.
