Čiurlionio namai gyvuoja tame pačiame name, kuriame, apsisprendęs apsigyventi Vilniuje, kambarį 1907 metų rudenį išsinuomojo Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis. Įsitraukdamas į lietuviškąjį kultūros sąjūdį, Čiurlionis, jau brandus ir sulaukęs pripažinimo tapytojas ir kompozitorius, o taip pat novatoriškai pasaulį matantis menininkas, labai aiškiai parodė, kad jis priklauso tai kūrėjų kategorijai, kuri tiki, kad menas gali pakeisti pasaulį, kad nemažiau už kūrybinius siekius ir asmeninę saviraišką svarbi kūrėjo pozicija gyvenime ir jo dalyvavimas bendruomenės kūrimo procesuose. Šiame name gyvendamas Čiurlionis vadovavo lietuvių chorui, norinčius – mokino muzikos, organizavo parodas ir koncertus, aktyviai įsitraukė į lietuviškąją kultūrinę veiklą, o tuo pačiu kūrė ir puoselėjo kūrybingos ir dvasingos Lietuvos ateities viziją.
The educational programs offered at the Čiurlionis House focus on nurturing creativity and finding connections between differing forms of artistic expression. Our wide range of programs are attended by preschoolers to senior citizens. Talented young music and art students who are just beginning their journey towards the big stage are frequent visitors in this house. Some of our exhibitions explore the environment in which Čiurlionis created and others show works that have been inspired by his creative legacy. The concerts that take place here also reflect Čiurlionis' heritage and his goal of being able to experience music as a living, constantly changing form of creativity that provides many spiritual insights.
Čiurlionis' legacy is especially relevant at our cultural evenings when we have book presentations, movie screenings and discussion panels. Our sightseeing tours in Vilnius stop at the places where Čiurlionis performed concerts and rehearsed with the Lithuanian choir and where exhibitions of his paintings took place. For those who prefer to discover Čiurlionis places in Vilnius individually, our interactive mobile app "Čiurlionis in Vilnius" is available on both main mobile platforms free of charge.
The Čiurlionis House works closely with the National Čiurlionis Cultural Route, which lets you follow in the footsteps of the artist along seven cities in Lithuania. The Čiurlionis House has played a leading role in creating cultural programs along this route.
The Čiurlionis House strives to make the name of this creative genius as widely known in the world as possible by organizing conferences, international forums, traveling art exhibits and concerts. We also host creative projects that focus on interpretations of Čiurlionis' works by internationally recognized artists.
The Čiurlionis House invites you to visit us through the words of the master himself,
"Come along with me, my friend, if you’d like to. I’m in a hurry to get to that land and along the way I will tell you some very interesting things.”
