... the answer is: Narodni dom, KIBAR at Kneza Koclja street. This place is part of the 'Kibla project' - it is based on idea of public reading rooms from previous century in order to distribute knowledge and make peope more active in public life, to say in basic sentence. Great stuff if you need to use internet or learn something new! As with any real internet cafes you can have your cup of coffee or beer, or other kinds of drinks and snacks from the bar. Here you can also get up to date information/fliers with programs in variety of places around Maribor - and (free) copy of IYP guide - good if you don't have any guide yet so it's worth to check out this place first.
Narodni dom has long history and is known as one of the centers of culture in Maribor. More than decade ago a group of young people had been doing a lot to promote cyber world here - and Kibla was born; originally modest and altruist concept with slowly working computers and internet connection has become broader thing related to visual/cyber art and science and nowsadays they hold computer workshops and contemporary 'art' exhibitions and installations - video, pictures and that kind of stuff. Some things can be real 'different' and interesting, other formal and banal, hey, but who am I to judge the art or whatsoever... like you know the concept of contemporary art is very broad - and art can be everything. Admission to Kibla events is free - worth to visit and support.
Other things in Narodni dom are also worth to check out: theatre, concerts, and lovely little cinema in the basement with small and cozy underground bar with friendly atmospehere.
