The development of the organisation is a multi-dimensional trajectory and as such there is no specific classification for its description. Developing a theoretical model of the organisation’s development based on its orientation can provide a clearer understanding and picture of the successes or issues faced in any given point of its’ evolution. The purpose of the research is to identify the orientation elements describing the path of the cultural organisation development. Identifying and developing a theoretical model appears to be a fundamental component of the functioning of the cultural organisation’s orientations, given that different organisations consist of various elements, which are utilised to describe their scope. The exploratory, single case study was conducted to determine whether the assumptions about these orientations made by the authors of the publication are correct. The following data analysis methods were used in the study: referring to theoretical assumptions and participant observation. The study confirmed that data are incomplete, but sufficient to describe the activities of the cultural organisation. The set of orientations including product, process, function, design, technology and innovation, geographic expansion, network orientation, will be the baseline for determining the cultural organisation's development path. The research results also show that the dimensions of cultural institution orientation are not the same as the assumptions made. This indicates the need for further in-depth research in this field and requires consideration of whether there is a common set of dimensions describing individual orientations.
