The now traditional exposition of arts and crafts opens in Oreshak village near Lovech tomorrow (May 3-5) with the participation of artisans from 13 countries.

“Besides traditional Bulgarian handicrafts, the festival showcases the cultures and arts of countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and North America,” said the exposition’s director Ivan Chakurov. “The festival is mottoed “Traditions in time”. We would like everyone to highlight their own identity, so we are presenting Arab cuisine alongside the mystique of India. Master craftsmen from all participating countries will be demonstrating the diversity of their traditional arts and crafts. Visitors will be able to take a trip around the world of culture and the arts.”

The guests to the festival will also be able to get a taste of the wealth of Bulgarian folklore.
