The in Nowiny Municipal Cultural Center has become a lively and music-driven space, thanks to music and dance workshops inspired by folk tradition. The event combined cultural education with the atmosphere of the family picnic.
The material part was led by Ewa Lubacz, an educator with experience in animation of culture. The classes were mainly aimed at children, which allowed the natural introduction of the youngest into the world of local heritage. The program included learning elements of traditional music and simple dance forms. The workshops were based on movement, rhythm and shared fun, so cultural content was absorbed intuitively.
The event also had an inclusive dimension for the whole community. The participants were welcomed by representatives of local authorities and cultural institutions: Łukasz Gryń, Head of GOK Edyta Bobryk and Vice-Chairman of the Gmina Council Zofia Duchniak.
In addition to the educational classes, additional attractions were waiting for the participants to complete the atmosphere of the summer meeting. On 29 August 2025, the smell of grilled sausages floated on the square, and children could enjoy popcorn and cotton candy. The final of the workshops was a dance party in the open air.
The event was organised by the Youth for the Law Association as part of the task “A series of festivals for folk inspiration”, as part of the People's and Traditional Culture Programme, co-financed by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage from the Culture Promotion Fund – a state-owned special purpose fund.
