We believe that in order to develop the discourse about disability arts it is important to enable disabled artists themselves to reflect and talk about their own work and actively participate with their equally important competences in the further development of inclusion in arts and culture.

Empty Voice/ performance/
In the performance «Empty Voice» performers with learning disabilities present themselves directly by telling their personal stories, recalling their memories, sharing their intimate confessions and statements of their own disability, presenting their condition as a social construction and inviting to a necessary deliberation of the possibility of different social relations.

Future read in concrete and stone
In 1917, in the wake of the October revolution, Vladimir Ilyich Lenin claims in one of his writings, that the only way to stay truthful to the revolution is to treat it as art. Following this thought the authors of Future Read in Concrete and Stone study and read the Yugoslav monuments to the People’s Liberation Struggle as both traces of revolution and coordinates of new society.

About the programme Co-collaboration
This program Lokomotiva developed in order to share resources with partner organizations from the wider civil society and to impact on public policy though themes that concerns social and cultural development.
For this purpose, Lokomotiva invited several partner organizations and individuals who began to develop a plan of collaboration with the civil sector, to rethink how to share the resources, and to give a wider impact and visibility of the civil society activities. In this way, the program will invest in the association, in the division of financial resources, in the creation of conditions of collectives- communities- partnerships who will collaborate and through intersectoral approach will open questions of concerns to citizens.
In the past Lokomotiva, together with Theatre Navigator Cvetko develops the space- project Kino Kultura, dedicated to the development and visibility of contemporary performing arts and contemporary culture. The Open Space program line of Kino Kultura is dedicated to collaboration though co – programming and partnership with the wider civil sector.
This program is developed in collaboration with the working group Open Space and aims to cover collaborations with other partner organizations and networks.

За програмата соработки
Оваа програма Локомотива ја развива со цел да сподели ресурси со партнерски организации од поширокото граѓанско општество и да влијае на јавнате политики преку теми што се однесуваат на социјалниот и културниот развој.
За оваа цел, Локомотива покани неколку партнерски организации и поединци кои започнаа да развиваат план за соработка со граѓанскиот сектор, да размислат како да ги споделат ресурсите и да дадат пошироко влијание и видливост на активностите на граѓанското општество. На овој начин, програмата ќе инвестира во здружението, во поделба на финансиските ресурси, во создавање услови на колективи – заедници – партнерства кои ќе соработуваат и преку меѓусекторски пристап ќе отвори прашања за загриженост до граѓаните.
Во минатото Локомотива, заедно со Театарскиот навигатор Цветко, го развиваа просторно-проектот Кино Култура, посветен на развојот и видливоста на современата изведувачка уметност и современата култура. Програмската линија Отворен простор на Кино Култура е посветена на соработка преку ко-програмирање и партнерство со поширокиот граѓански сектор.
Оваа програма беше развиена во соработка со работната група Отворен простор и има за цел да покрие соработка со други партнерски организации и мрежи.
