Summary/Abstract: The article describes and provides an assessment of the „Colours of the Brno Bronx“ project that was conducted in the period 2017−2020 in the Czech city of Brno in an area affected by social exclusion. The project was based on the theoretical assumption that the development of community life and cultural activities serves to improve the quality of life in an area. It aimed to strengthen the participation of the target group through the organisation of creative activities under local conditions. The article concludes that the various project activities led to the higher level of involvement of the target group in the life of the monitored area.
