By realizing it we want to connect the beautiful with the useful, pleasant, environmental friendly and all this subsequently to be converted to a way of developing entrepreneurial business.

Participants will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in an entirely different field for them of expression, namely &#8211; art. The location of the project &#8211; Tryavna, contributes to incite creativity. As it is known everywhere, Tryavna is the city where the beauty is born.
