Circle of Friends

The Circle of Friends - House of World Cultures has joined together with the aim of actively supporting this dialogue with non-European cultures.

The association's members support this in an ideational, communicative and financial manner. They support the House in exchanging experience and information with business enterprises, and with cultural, scientific and political institutions in Germany, Europe, and the respective countries of origin of its guests.

The members of the Circle of Friends help improve the financial base of the House of World Cultures through their own contributions and through active recommendation. They support the House's events and help shape its programme in discussions with the management.One of the projects made possible by the support association Circle of Friends is the international Internet-based artist database culturebase.net , which has been initiated by the House of World Cultures. The database was put on the Internet in 2003 to provide a reliable source of information for journalists, event and exhibition organisers and interested members of the public. It is the result of strategic co-operation between a range of European cultural institutions. Further collaborations are planned.

Both the Circle of Friends and the House of World Cultures will happily provide any further information required.
