The name AC\u00b2 comes from American College Arcus Club and reflects its connection with the American College Arcus.<\/p>\n<p>The new centre plans exhibitions, theatre and film screenings, concerts and other opportunities for creative exchange. Curators Ilina Peneva and Adriana Hristova will shape its artistic programme, with themes expected to change from season to season.<\/p>\n<p>The choice of the former cinema is deliberate. The building is part of Veliko Tarnovo's cultural memory, and its transformation offers an opportunity to host public events there once again. As early as June, the Veliko Tarnovo Regional Administration announced plans to convert part of Poltava into a contemporary cultural centre.<\/p>\n<p>The organisers have announced the opening dates, but the verified announcements do not yet specify a detailed timetable or admission arrangements. Visitors should check these details with the AC\u00b2 team before attending.<\/p>\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bta.bg\/bg\/news\/lik\/1231328-novo-prostranstvo-za-izkustvo-i-sreshti-otvarya-vrati-vav-veliko-tarnovo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bulgarian News Agency, 23 October 2026 \u2014 information from the AC\u00b2 team<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oblastvt.bg\/%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B2-%D0%B6%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%BE%D1%82-%D0%B7%D0%B0-%E2%80%9E%D0%BF%D0%BE%D0%BB%D1%82%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B0%E2%80%9C-%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%B1%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%87%D0%BD%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%BE-%D1%82%D1%8A%D1%80%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B2%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE-%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%BE-%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B0-%D1%81%D1%86%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B0-%D0%B7%D0%B0-%D0%B8%D0%B7%D0%BA%D1%83%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%BE_2672\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Veliko Tarnovo Regional Administration, 3 June 2026 \u2014 background on the former Poltava cinema project<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Photo: Illustrative picture of an art gallery, not AC\u00b2: Dannie Jing \/ Unsplash (Unsplash License).<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The AC\u00b2 cultural space in Veliko Tarnovo is set to open on 6, 7 and 8 November, with plans for exhibitions, cinema, theatre and music events.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1812,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[2,21,6],"tags":[16],"class_list":["post-1814","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-veliko-tarnovo","category-kultura","category-sabitiya","tag-aktualno"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":8}},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/5000.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/\u0425\u0443\u0434\u043e\u0436\u0435\u0441\u0442\u0432\u0435\u043d\u0430-\u0433\u0430\u043b\u0435\u0440\u0438\u044f-\u2013-\u0438\u043b\u044e\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0430\u0446\u0438\u044f-\u2013-Dannie-Jing-Unsplash.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1814","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1814"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1814\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1816,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1814\/revisions\/1816"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1812"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1814"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1814"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1814"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
