We congratulate the winners of the regional competition among public libraries “Treasures of Dnipropetrovsk Region: Studying, Valuing, and Promoting”! 👏
The award ceremony was held on the eve of the International Day of Intangible Cultural Heritage.
During the event, participants spoke extensively about #IntangibleCulturalHeritage, watched videos from two of the winning libraries, and enjoyed performances by the folk ensemble “Pershotsvit” from the Pavlohrad area.
