jagoda.nowakowska@wok.art.pl Agata Heft
Office and WOK.lab Coordinator
I like space to matter and to be able to become a place for meetings, creative work, and the exchange of ideas. At WOK, I ensure it runs smoothly and flexibly, adapting to the people and events that bring it to life. Organising, coordinating, and co-creating things are not only my day-to-day tasks but, above all, a way of being close to culture and in an inspiring environment.
