The Yard Gallery of Kaunas is a fascinating and innovative event that was created from scratch. The festival space reuses derelict and neglected inner courtyard space in the city center by transforming the yard into an open air gallery. Moreover, the walls of the gallery are painted with the portraits of the old residents of the now neglected space, providing a historic link to the culture and the roots of the community. Kaunas is showing that urban space, even when it is not being used can provide a use for the tourism of the city. Creative cultural innovations provide an alternative use of space and enable derelict urban space to be given new life.
