The project is supported by Stella Cristofolini and Ivana Indjin

The Stella project is intended for young people who want to strengthen self-esteem, self-confidence, self-reflection and to establish their own inner peace through artistic expression.

The northern part of Vojvodina is the region of Serbia with the highest rate of suicide among young people under the age of 25. Depression is among the leading health disorders in this region, ranking fourth behind ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and lung cancer.

The surroundings of Sombor are not economically developed, so there are no usual urban amenities for young people, such as: continuous weekly cultural programs and sports activities. Employment opportunities are also very low. The Stella project is an attempt to animate young people and give them a safe space to express themselves, to learn new social and artistic skills.
