The Urban Scans Project is a non-profit initiative which has a representative, informational, educational and scientific purpose – to store, present, promote and distribute information and digital data about works of fine art and architecture (monuments, sculptures, monuments, buildings) of Bulgaria. Our goal is to increase interest in public cultural assets while fostering teamwork, scientific and artistic research, student initiatives and studies.
