Supporting technical fields has a strategic importance for us. The closest cooperation we have established with Kolín’s Industrial Engineering Secondary School. Together we have created a whole new degree program that responds to the needs of modern industry. The most important technical universities in the Czech Republic have signed the partnership agreement, under which we offer students paid internships, list topics for their theses.

TPCArt or Kolín as a gallery – Festival of Contemporary Art – arose from the need to support young artists from the region and to beautify Kolín spaces. Even Kolín people got actively involved in beautifying their city. During two weeks in September 2013, the concrete sides of the new Kolín bridge received a new facade in the form of graffiti wallpaper, the gable of a house was decorated with a large format painting on the theme “recycling”.  A new open-air gallery was established in the Kolín park, where visitors can gaze at art created from materials commonly used to manufacture our cars. Students at the Industrial Engineering High School helped the artists at creating their works of art.

In 2006, Kolín’s Kmoch’s island first resonated with beats from the TPCA Beat festival, which ever since, not only brings to the region another cultural event, but also provides an opportunity for local bands to present themselves. They compare their music alongside famous colleagues. The winner takes away cash that is to be used for recording professional recordings
