In summer, after work, we rush to enjoy the sun, nature, and the sea, but certainly not pots and pans in the kitchen. We don't always have time for a healthy lunch or dinner, so we often replace them with unhealthy snacks and fast food. On June 13 at 4:00 p.m., we invite you to a creative food workshop with Paulius Paulauskas, a participant in the KUFA mentoring program, nutrition and public health specialist, and online trainer. During the creative food workshop, we will learn how to prepare healthy, easy-to-make plant-based summer dishes, and we will talk about eating habits and common nutrition myths.

Come to the KUFA summer terrace! The event is free of charge.

Thank you to everyone who registered. Registration is now closed.

The Culture Factory invites cultural representatives, creators, and young entrepreneurs to participate in a public speaking workshop, "KUFA Entrepreneurship Workshop | "The Goals of Public Speaking and Tools for Improving It" at the Culture Factory on June 20 at 3:00 p.m.

REGISTRATION REQUIRED (limited number of places): gabriele@kulturosfabrikas.lt

During the seminar,
Julija Brodskė, a public speaking and visual communication teacher and mentor, will share her practical experience and invite participants to join the discussion. She has been working in the field of social media communication for more than 8 years, providing consulting services and conducting training sessions. She is a long-time member and former president of the Toastmasters Klaipėda public speaking and leadership club.

Every person wants to make a good impression and earn a good reputation in the eyes of others. They want to be successful in their career and self-fulfillment, and build wonderful relationships not only within their family, but also among colleagues and in the community.

Communication skills are extremely useful for this purpose: formulating messages accurately, speaking persuasively, effectively, and interestingly.
By honing these skills, we learn not only to communicate better, but also to sell, persuade, agree, negotiate, and inspire. What's more, these skills can also be used in social media communication: when creating video content, text posts, etc.

The workshop will cover the following topics:
• How to communicate (speak, write) concisely and accurately?
• What body language mistakes do we most often make when communicating?
• Nervousness before events, meetings, important occasions – how to deal with it?
• What is charisma and how to improve it?

Venue: Kultūros fabrikas STUDIJA 2A (Second floor)
Workshop duration: 2 hours.
