MALTA FOUNDATION’S STATUTE [download below]

Two key events realised by the foundation are international festivals: Malta Festival Poznań (organised since 1991, initially called MALTA International Theatre Festival, and consequently renamed in 2010) , and Nostalgia Festival (organised since 2007). At the same time, the foundation also organised three editions of Tzadik Festival Poznań (until 2009) and collaborated on the realisation of three editions of International Dialogue of 4 Cultures Festival in Łódź.

MALTA Foundation’s team consists of both regular employees, and a network of partners and associates of Malta and Nostalgia Festivals; and of course, volunteers. The realisation of the foundation’s statutory activities would not be possible without their full engagement in the organisation’s mission.
