A new place.
A warm welcome.
You don’t have to know anyone. You don’t have to know what you’re doing. Here’s what your first visit to Žalianamis Open Youth Centre could feel like.
Find the entrance
Use the main courtyard entrance. A workshop host meets the group inside the lobby; ask for the zine workshop.
Meet Gabija
This is an independent open-studio session. A facilitator can explain the materials, but a personal arrival welcome is not guaranteed.
Join at your own pace
You can start by watching, find a quiet seat, or ask the host to explain the activity. There is no need to introduce yourself to the whole group.
Leave whenever you want
Stay for the whole session or just a little while. You can take a break, step outside, or leave early. You do not need to explain why.
A few practical details
Activities take place on the ground floor. Step-free access and accessible toilet details must be confirmed with the organiser before a real visit.
No registration is required for this demo activity.
No centre membership is needed for this demo workshop; a youth worker is available throughout.
Demo content: these arrival and accessibility instructions are illustrative. Verify all details with the real venue before visiting.
One new place. One small step. Your kind of city.
