Bring your art to Maria square for display! The ITE art day brings art made by the townspeople to Maria square

Painted pieces of wood that are shaped like birds.

ITE art day is celebrated on June 15 at Maria Square from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.

It is now planned to create a low-threshold ITE artwork environment for a day in Maria Square, where art made by the townspeople can be displayed. We are looking for exhibitors and performers of their own art for the event. We encourage all - poets, crafters, craft enthusiasts, singers in the shower, nibblers, and painters to sign up. So, anyone can register for the ITE art day.

The art presented can also be anything - paintings, photographs, handicrafts, sculptures, or installations. Performing arts can be reciting poems, telling stories, singing, making music, or performance art. The idea of ​​the ITE art day is to get the townspeople to boldly bring out their own creativity. So, you don't have to be a professional artist or performer - on the contrary.
