The atmosphere of the “Slavianski Bazaar” is created by a rich theatrical program, warm musical meetings in the regional philharmonic society and, of course, truly folkloric street venues. Only in the “City of Masters” more than 200 participants from different parts of Belarus and Russia will present their work. Local artisans will be accompanied by nuggets from Pskov, Nizhny Tagil, Vologda, Oudmurtia…
Ekaterina Labuko, director of the Vitebsk Regional Folk Art Methodological Center, said:
– It is planned to hold two competitions of masters – in embroidery and basketry. Don’t miss our international national dance tournament “Tanchym timesam” (“Let’s dance together”). During the “Slavianski Bazaar”, it will turn everyone around for the jubilee, the 10th time, gathering around 250 Belarusian and Russian participants in Freedom Square. Some of them will also feature special local dances.
The first forum is “Fashion entertainment” with a show of modern outfits, in which elements of the folk system are noticeable. Linen, intricate ornaments, original decorations will be presented by Belarusian fashion theaters and guests from the Russian Federation. We will not reveal all the surprises, but it will not do without the semantic line of “two sisters – Belarus and Russia”.
The public also fell in love with the street art festival “On the Seven Winds”, which from July 13 to 16 will transform the streets of Vitebsk into open-air concert halls. Performers and artists, dancers and musicians, an incendiary fire show – it will be beautiful!
