Cultural exhibition - a place you'll want to stay

If you are planning to come to the Dance Festival, be sure to make time for the Culture Exhibition. This is not an exhibition that you pass by in a few minutes. This is a place where you want to stop, look, listen, chat and discover something unexpected.

Here, you will find the record-breaking "Three-dimensional Sea Sonata" from Lithuania - the largest Lithuanian autostereogram. At first glance, it is just an ornament, but when you look at it differently, a three-dimensional world opens up with images inspired by MK Čiurlionis, a ship in the palm of your hand and lighthouses on the horizon. It is not for nothing that this work so beautifully reflects the theme of this year's Dance Festival - "Between Two Shores".

Want to know how much Lithuania can be found outside of Lithuania? Meet Augustinas and Aiste Žemaičiais, who have spent more than a decade searching for Lithuanian heritage around the world. They have visited more than 1,500 Lithuanian sites in over 50 countries and brought back incredible stories and images of what Lithuanians have created far from their homeland.

Are you interested in your roots, citizenship, or preserving your connection to Lithuania? Lawyer and researcher Aistė Žemaitienė will share practical advice and answer questions that are relevant to many Lithuanians abroad.

However, the Culture Exhibition will not be limited to exhibits and lectures. Visitors will also be able to immerse themselves in virtual reality experiences that will allow them to take a new look at Lithuanian culture, history and attractions. It is an opportunity not only to see, but also to experience.

You will also find films, artwork, stories, creators, explorers and many unexpected discoveries. Whether you visited Lithuania a month ago, ten years ago, or have only heard about your grandparents' birthplace from family stories, you will find something here that will interest you.

So don't just stop by for a short while. Come spend part of the day. Bring your friends, parents, grandparents or children. The cultural exhibition will be a place where art, history, technology, heritage and living Lithuanian stories from all over the world will meet.

Let's meet at the Culture Exhibition - where Lithuania comes to life in a variety of forms.
