Who we are
Our Partners

Our programs draw upon the deep expertise of museum educators and teachers with over 10 years of experience, coming from national and private museums, cultural institutes, and schools.

We believe in learning through direct partnership and practice. As such, we collaborate with leading museums, foundations, and cultural organizations in Bucharest to co-design and deliver programs deeply rooted in heritage and real-world contexts.

Furthermore, our trainings include job shadowing activities, providing professionals with the unique opportunity to observe and engage with our team and partners. This hands-on immersion allows for a practical exchange of expertise and a deeper understanding of non-formal education in action.

At Cultural Cortex, we believe in education through culture. We equip educational and cultural institutions in Europe with the essential competencies for their education and communication teams, helping them turn simple activities into profound learning journeys.

Tailored specifically for Erasmus+ beneficiaries, our methodology integrates theoretical grounding, engagement with national heritage, and museum visits.

Through our 3-to-5-day courses, we develop practical skills—from structuring content and managing diversity to crafting meaningful narratives—ensuring your educators are ready to inspire any audience. Explore our training offers below.

Our Services

Courses and workshops designed for educators, trainers, and museum professionals focusing on cultural techniques and adult education.

Subjective Cartography & Creative Facilitation

Cultural Cortex provides innovative workshops in Subjective Cartography and Creative Facilitation, designed for educators, trainers, and teachers. Available in Romanian and English, our courses move beyond traditional geography to explore the emotional and sensory dimensions of space.

We equip professionals with engaging methodologies—such as sensory mapping, photo-geographic walks, and visual icebreakers—to stimulate creativity and group cohesion. Whether for local staff training or international workshops, we offer a fresh perspective on using the city and personal maps as powerful educational resources.
