The Project of Wejherowo Culture Center entitled Visegrad Notes is funded to the amount of 10 000 € from the International Visegrad Fund: http://visegradfund.org/

Amateur choral activities are an important and valuable part of the music culture of the society. Wejherowo Culture Center since 1966 promotes choral singing through organisation of periodic competition for the best choirs from across Poland – the Festival of Songs about the Sea.
