Kosovelov dom was established in 1991 as a municipal public non-profit institution, a cultural centre for the Kras Region. It is named after Srečko Kosovel (1904 –1926), expressionist poet born in Sežana. The Culture House is located in the town centre and is known locally as 'the city within the city', having its own square, street and park as well as many spaces for performing and visual arts and film. The cinema is a member of the Art Cinema Network, which distributes selected high-quality films around Slovenia.


In addition to its regular theatre, music and film programme, the venue hosts several annual cultural events, for instance the Vilenica International Writers’ Gathering. Kosovelov dom also co-operates with several other Slovene institutions, including theatre houses, regional cultural centres and non-governmental organisations. In 2008 it initiated the establishment of the Association of the Regional Culture Houses which strives to resist the commercialisation of their programmes.
