Throughout our tour with the exhibition we were trying to monitor the activity of local media broadcasters and look for information about our exhibition. Below, you can see links to news releases regarding the exhibition (with a division into countries the exhibition was presented in).
Thanks to the support of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, our exhibition “Colours or Orthodoxy. Poland” is visiting seven European countries. On the 1st of December the exhibition was presented in Rakov (Belarus). The exhibition had been organized by the Parish of Transfiguration.
Losnica in Serbia is another place where our exhibition was presented. At the opening it was pointed out that this time the exhibition arrived at a rather small town, showing that exhibitions of this sort are addressed to different viewers. The town dwellers were grateful that organizers did not forget about smaller towns.
