Ievietots: 14.06.2017

                  

To celebrate the International Refugee Day and to acquaint the citizens from the third countries living in Latvia with the Latvian culture and traditions, the Society “Shelter “Safe House”” is organizing a special event, that will take place on June 20, 13:00 – 15:00, at Lāčplēša Street 70 B – 1, at the premises of the Creative Association for Youth TREPES.

We will dance the Summer Solstice dances and play games together with representatives from different cultures and a Latvian folklore group. We will learn to sing Līgo songs and play various ancient Latvian rhythm instruments. We will acquaint people from different cultures with the Latvian written symbols by drawing them on materials of different surfaces. Children will be able to work in creative workshops with volunteers.
