What is Budapest100?
Budapest100 is a unique organic program mobilizing the entire city which was initiated by OSA (Open Society Archives) Archivum and KÉK (Hungarian Contemporary Architecture Centre) in 2011. Its ultimate goal is to start a tradition and to draw our attention to the buildings surrounding us and the human values that are around us every day.
The program is a civil urban festival which has an outstanding community building effect by bringing people of different social background and generations closer.
Volunteering plays a key role in Budapest100. Apart from participating buildings, it is our volunteers who, by creatively helping to implement the colorful programs and devoting their energies to organization, make the festival a successful event.
In 2016, however, Budapest100 takes a huge step forward and will focus on Nagykörút. The 120 years old boulevard, which cuts across several districts and neighborhoods is flanked by buildings with a cultural, historical, architectural and urban history value. This year any building can join the program regardless its age.
The programs organized by architects, land scape architects, urban scientists and experts of protection of historical monuments will offer fora to discuss the different visions of the future of Nagykörút. Budapest100 wishes to promote the creation of communities on Nagykörút made up of residents, shop owners, entrepreneurs and tenants. In order to do so, we welcome suggestions on the use of vacant commercial units and on traffic alternatives including parking and bicycle lanes.
