The exposition "The Light of the Letters" has already been presented at the History Museum in the cities of Niagara Falls and Kitchener, Ontario, and Calgary, Alberta, with the assistance of the Bulgarian Embassy in Ottawa. The exhibition was first presented in 2013 - declared by UNESCO as the year of Cyril and Methodius who created the Slavonic alphabet.
