Initially, KUD Mreža Association was primarily engaged in visual arts projects at Metelkova, and was one of the formal vehicles available for various collectives that were active there. Its predecessor was, in a way, Mreža za Metelkovo (The Network for Metelkova), an initiative that worked to establish this autonomous cultural centre in the first place.
Together with the Society for the Protection of Atheistic Feelings (DZAČ), it also founded the Metelkova venue Klub Menza pri koritu into a popular club that now hosts concerts, poetry evenings, various workshops (circus, stage technique, etc) and many other events involving local and international musicians, performers, artists, and more. Yet, as of 2015, the association is not active there any more.
Since 2000, KUD Mreža is organising the International Feminist and Queer Festival Red Dawns, which features performances, concerts, exhibitions, urban interventions, as well as video projections, round tables, book presentations, and lectures. For a time, it also organised the similarly diverse, on contemporary improvised music, dance, and visual arts oriented [[Personal–Collective Festival].
It also operates the Alkatraz Gallery, which concentrates on contemporary art exhibitions, performances and installations, and the adjacent Studio Asylum, which hosts artists and authors who come here for a work visit within the Artist-in-Residence project. The latter was launched in 2006, and is operated together with the Art Center Prosenjakovci. It has hosted numerous artists from a number of countries, including Croatia, France, Japan, Great Britain, Germany, and Norway. In this same field, KUD Mreža also runs art auctions and organises art workshops (painting, graphic art, sculpture, metal sculpture, etc.).
The "Urban Art Projects" [Urbani likovni projekti] are devoted to the renovations and art exhibitions in public spaces at Metelkova mesto, such as creating and arranging Hajlends Park at Metelkova mesto, making mosaics, etc. It also manages an archive of photographic, audio and video materials regarding Metelkova mesto and the events occurring there.
Active since 2007, the music cycle Đezz pri Koritu has in 2015 transformed music concert cycles FriForma, which focuses on improvised music. This cycle was complemented in XXXX by the cycle Metabonma, which focuses more on contemporary classical music.
The guests in the scope of FriForma have been xxx, xxx and xxx; Metabonma has brought xxx, xxx and xxx. It uses various venues, among them Klub Gromka, Menza pri Koritu and MoTA Museum of Transitory Art.
