Mission statement
Our mission statement is to present and to represent the values of cultural diversity through arts. Artist residency projects and artists invited from different cultures together with Babel Camp inspire the community of their audience in many ways:
We support education of cultures and arts to all generations
We support the interactive meeting of various cultures
We support artists and members of the community of audience with real opportunities to get in touch with each other
We support people to build bridges: professional and cultural relationships
We encourage creative co-operation, play and personal encounter
We ask artists to be true representatives of their cultures
Our mission is to present and pass on the cultural heritage and deepen the mutual respect for each other through arts. Multi-culture is our passion.
Our target audience
ESSENCE
Arts essential people: Engaging with high-quality culture, however broadly defined, is their primary concern. They’ve engaged with the arts before: they’re operating in a familiar world, they speak the language, and they understand the terrain. They’re therefore confident, knowledgeable and don’t see popularity as a signifier of quality. As a result, they can sometimes be dismissive of things they believe to be too populist or unsophisticated.
The segment is called Essence because culture is essential to their very being. They’re the one segment for whom art and culture isn’t just something they do, it’s a fundamental part of who they are. It’s the fibre of their character. If you were to take culture away from them, it would be like taking oxygen away from them. They can’t imagine their life without it.
EXPRESSION
Community-focused people, they’re ‘yes’ people – full of enthusiasm with varied and eclectic cultural tastes. Their cultural activity reflects their wide range of interests and hobbies, which often feature learning, community and nature. They’re in tune with their creative side, fun-loving and see culture as a way of broadening horizons. Expression are ‘people’ people. They enjoy activities that help them connect with and share experiences with others. They are community minded. They like to be sure that everyone is welcome to enjoy the benefits of engaging and as such, put a high price on inclusivity.
Culture is not a private thing for Expression; it’s a communal thing. When they have a really good experience they thrive off other people having that same experience rather than keeping it secret or in a special box. They want the masses to go and enjoy things – to share them and reflect on them together. They really enjoy other people enjoying it.
STIMULATION
Active, experimental people. For them, ‘do something different’ is a maxim for life. They are all about big ideas and are looking for something out of the ordinary. Stimulation are independent-minded, but they’re also aware of how they’re perceived by others. They are happy to stand out from the crowd if it shows them to be ahead of the curve. Early adopters, they don’t need things to have a proven track record before they get involved: they like to be the one making the discoveries rather than following the crowd. They’re not opposed to popular shows or big-name blockbusters, but the real mainstream is probably already passé.
For Stimulation, engaging with arts, culture and heritage can be a challenging, cerebral experience. It’s about big ideas: historical, political, societal or cultural. But they want to explore these ideas with their friends with a beer in hand. Ultimately, they want to be moved emotionally, challenged intellectually, and consume culture socially.

Our community
A community of artists and people with good will. A community for happiness. But what is happiness? Happiness is a decision. Not more, not less.
It is a state of mind, what everyone can decide about, what everyone can control.
It is freedom and acceptance at the same time.
The freedom to have an open mind and an open heart.
The acceptance of yourself and your surroundings.
Good things and problems are everywhere, „shit happens” independently of your wealth, your culture, your social status, your age. Just help the others and the others will help you.
