Dzielnicowy Dom Kultury “Węglin”

The Dzielnicowy Dom Kultury «Węglin» is a cultural center located in Lublin, in eastern Poland. It offers artistic activities for children, teenagers, and adults, with a program including theater, dance, visual arts, and circus arts.

Her circus workshops, entitled Warsztaty Cyrkowe , are led by Katarzyna Kurowska.

A regular introduction to circus arts

The workshops allow children to discover circus arts practices through weekly sessions.

The teaching emphasizes experimentation, coordination, and the discovery of new skills. Group practice allows participants to progress in an environment that fosters mutual support and creativity.

Juggling and object manipulation

The discovery activities organized by the center include, in particular, juggling with scarves and manipulating Chinese plates.

These exercises help to improve hand-eye coordination, concentration, and precision of movement.

The use of circus accessories makes the practice accessible to children who are discovering these disciplines for the first time.

A teaching method adapted to children

The center has experience in organizing circus workshops for different age groups.

Its previous programming notably distinguished between children aged 6 to 9 and those aged 10 to 13.

The sessions combine physical activities, technical discovery, and group games. They allow children to develop their confidence and independence in learning new moves.

Activities during the holidays

DDK Węglin also organizes art workshops during school holidays.

In February 2026, her holiday program included workshops in scarf juggling and Chinese plate juggling, led in particular by Katarzyna Kurowska.

These activities allow you to discover the circus in a format different from weekly classes, combining artistic practices and group games.

A local cultural center

DDK Węglin develops a program built around the needs of the residents of the neighborhood and the city of Lublin.

The institution promotes access to artistic activities, encounters between participants, and experimentation with different forms of creation.

Circus workshops are part of this cultural education approach.

An amateur practice

DDK Węglin is not a professional circus school. It is a municipal cultural center offering regular circus arts instruction among its various activities.

This organization allows children to discover circus arts in an accessible setting, without following a formal qualification course.

DDK Węglin is a place for initiating circus arts in Lublin. Through its weekly workshops, its teaching adapted to children and its activities during the holidays, it contributes to the transmission of circus practices within a neighborhood cultural center.
