Priča koja daje kontekst lokaciji

Every city has that one special place where one grows up, where first crushes happen, lifelong friendships are formed, and first musical ideas are born. In Čapljina, that place is not some luxurious hall, but an ordinary railing – the popular gelenderi in front of the Church of St. Francis of Assisi. It is precisely from this simple, yet symbolic piece of metal and stone that the Guitar Club "Gelenderi" got its name, a story that has preserved the spirit of youth and urban culture of this city for decades.

Back in 2005, under the auspices of the Center for Education and Culture "Akademija" Čapljina, spontaneous gatherings with guitars took on their official form, but they never lost their original street soul. The name of the club came quite naturally and without much philosophizing.

These gelenderi have become and remain a cult gathering place for generations of Čapljina youth. As times, trends, and technologies changed, this location remained a solid point in space and time. Numerous generations have grown up here.

The Guitar Club "Gelenderi" operates within the Center for Education and Culture "Akademija" Čapljina, which is located in the premises next to the Church of St. Francis of Assisi. What started as an informal gathering of young people with guitars in front of the church, evolved in 2005 into a structured music section and guitar school that has been continuously active for over two decades.

At a time when young people spend more and more time in front of screens, "Gelenderi" have remained a rare healthy alternative in the city. Hundreds of elementary and high school students from Čapljina have passed through the club. Even those for whom music did not become a life calling have taken away basic musical education from "Gelenderi", overcome their stage fright, and gained friends with whom they shared the same interests.
