culture.lu is an initiative of Luxembourg's Ministry of Culture launched 2013 to help the culture scene in Luxembourg. culture.lu aims to encourage, promote and share artistic and cultural creation in the Grand Duchy and thus make it more accessible to those active in the sector as well as those with an interest in culture.
Alongside job offers in the cultural sector and calls for artists, as well as a plethora of explanations on the various support mechanisms available in Luxembourg, the “News” section has been expanded to include a “Blog”. The new site aims to present a broader perspective on cultural creation emanating from Luxembourg, in the form of articles, podcasts and playlists.
"KulturPur" (pure culture), a bimonthly podcast presenting cultural actors in Luxembourg in the form of interviews. KulturPur is produced in partnership with Radio ARA.
Luxembourg's Minister of Culture, Sam Tanson, highlighted the importance of such a platform: “The cultural scene in Luxembourg is so flourishing and diversified that it deserves a dedicated portal which makes it possible to discover all this creative richness and to strengthen its visibility at national and international level”.
“Luc Wagner, Director of alac, atated: “We wanted to take advantage of the crisis linked to COVID-19 to improve our tools for the online promotion of culture in Luxembourg. In the case of culture.lu, this means adding more original content in order to make this portal even more attractive to a wider target””
