• Educational Work and Mediation: The spectrum includes the support of seminars, guided tours in museums, readings, theater workshops, excursions, craft design, and media education, particularly with special target groups such as children, adolescents, seniors, migrants, and people with disabilities[1].
• Event and Project Organization: LKB Hessen assists in the planning and execution of cultural events and projects.
• Office and Administrative Activities as well as Press and Public Relations Work: These activities are an integral part of the association's work[1].

The main mission of LKB Hessen is to promote cultural education as an important contribution to personal development from the very beginning and throughout life. The association is non-denominational and politically independent and acts as a civil society representation for the interests of cultural education[4].

LKB Hessen is committed to comprehensive and inclusive cultural participation in Hesse. Through the FSJ and other programs, the association promotes the active involvement of young people in cultural activities and provides them with the opportunity to gain valuable experiences and skills. Furthermore, LKB Hessen supports networking and exchange between various cultural institutions and actors to create a diverse and vibrant cultural life in the region[1][3].
