Upon his passing, half of Hemmer’s wealth was donated to the ‘Fondation Lëtzebuerger Jugendherbergen’ founded in 1986 and later renamed to ‘Carlo Hemmer Foundation’. The aim of the foundation is to receive funds and manage the foundation’s assets in order to support youth hostels, social tourism, sporting events and educational activities – independent of political, social and religious aspects.}

It is worth strolling through the pedestrian zone during the 25th edition of the Street(Art)Nimation in Luxembourg-City. You will find street artists, pantomimes, stilt walkers, musicians... and many other artists which will enchant you in a glittering fantasy world of poetry and comedy. From small walk acts to imposing performances in the squares, from interactive forms of performance to classic staging, mobile marionnettes and puppet theatres, off-beat comedies and funny sketches, quirky stage programmes and poetically beautiful acrobatic and circus routines, sometimes humorous, sometimes thought-provoking, but almost always experimental: The entire range of street art is given a brilliant meeting place in Luxembourg’s city centre.
