Our main project is St. John’s Parade, which takes place in June from the center of Wroclaw to the Slodowa Island, where wreathes are thrown onto the water, according to the ancient slavic traditions. Young people from many European countries get acquainted with our culture and people from Lower Silesia have the opportunity to see artists from other countries. Our Parade is a symbol for the peaceful co-existence of many different cultures in Europe from Portugal to Georgia.
