The event will also recognize the work of the most committed entities during these ten years that will receive a commemorative diploma.

Fins el diumenge 30 d’octubre se celebraran més de 200 activitats als 63 equipaments culturals d’arreu de Catalunya que en formen part. Entre les novetats d’aquest any, destaca l’activitat anomenada “Cruïlla Apropa” que consistirà en un intercanvi d’experiències entre una entitat social i un equipament. L’entitat tindrà l’oportunitat de visitar un equipament d’una manera especial i després serà el personal de l’equipament qui visitarà el centre social per compartir-hi una activitat. D’aquesta manera, també seran les entitats qui obriran les seves portes i podran mostrar el seu món, els seus valors i les seves realitats.
