The annual Bobri (Beavers) festival aimed at the cultural and artistic education of children and teens has started today, January 20 2018, and will end on February 8, 2018.
The festival offers a plethora of workshops and shows in various art forms, such as theatre, dance, music, storytelling and film.
Morning shows are generally reserved for schools and other institutions, while afternoon shows are open to the general public. As theatres have a limited number of in seats, tickets are required to enter each show, although these are free.
