"SHKA AGIMI" BUILDING

SHKA "Agimi" is one of the oldest cultural and artistic associations in the city of Prizren. Founded in 1944, the Agimi association brought together the city's most vocal artists, keeping alive a tradition that is both old and contemporary for the city of Prizren. The artist and professor of Albanian folklore, Anton Cetta, was its first leader. After him, many other prominent figures successfully lead this association with values ​​such as Petrit Nushi, Dashnor Xërxa, Fetah Aqifi, Festim Bytyqi and Xheladin Kastrati. 

Over the years, this association participated in many festivals in the former Yugoslavia as well as everywhere in the world presenting the artistic and civic values ​​of Prizren. The awards, acknowledgments and many evaluations for SHKA "Agimi" over the years are recognition for a colossal work in the best possible representation of the culture of Prizren and Kosovo. 

The SHKA Agimi building, as an important monument of our cultural heritage, was moved from the old building in 1980. With the help of some businessmen, the facility was restored to functional condition. The various sections of SHKA Agimi were: Mixed Choir; folk orchestra with singers; folk ensemble; literary and reciting group; art painting and photo group, music and drama group.
