Association of Zachęta - Contemporary Art Gallery was registered on 17th November 2004. The impulse for its founding was the National Culture Programme "Signs of the Times" published in March 2004 by Waldemar Dabrowski, Minister of Culture. For over eight years of running the Association, we have gathered an impressive collection of over 200 works, which is systematically expanded with the support of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage and Local Government, especially the West Pomerania Province Marshal's Office. In the opinion of critics and art historians, who has summarized the National Culture Programme "Signs of the Times", the program was carried out very efficiently, especially in Szczecin. The collection formed the basis of a series of promotional and educational projects. Mainly, we are inspired by meetings with the audience, especially in unusual spaces: churches, office buildings and public spaces.
