Advent time in the Klarisky Concert Hall

Dozens of stands on the Main Square and the cultural scene on Franciscan Square will not be the only places with a Christmas atmosphere.

Advent concerts, popular Saturday exchanges of clothes, toys and books, a collection for homeless people or children’s creative workshops with Christmas themes await you in the Klarisky Concert and Exhibition Hall.

The holidays in Bratislava will also have a charitable dimension. Popular barter exchanges will be held in Klarisky, and clothes, toys and books that visitors do not exchange will go to people in need. The collection for homeless people will focus on sleeping bags, thermoses and mats.

Swap of children’s, women’s and men’s clothing will be at Klarisky Concert Hall on November 26th. Clothes that remain will go to people in need. At the same time, there will be a special collection of sleeping bags, thermos and cariments for homeless people.

A week after, the December 3rd, toys (with the exception of plush toys for hygiene reasons), children’s books and kits intended for children under 14 years of age will be exchanged. All remaining toys will be afterwards donated to the Municipal Lodginghouse in Kopčany, Fortuna Lodginghouse in Dúbravka as well as to Centre for Children and Families Repuls.

All children will be welcomed in Klarisky the first two Advent Sundays. Creative workshops with ÚĽUV masters will be waiting there for them. Children can thus decorate gingerbread, as well as create Christmas ornaments made of wood, wire or wicker.
