The project “Codes of Latvian History and Contemporary Culture” (LV - LKK) * invites to the fourth walk: “The canon of culture is everywhere”.

On Saturday, February 26, at 11.00 am, we invite all third-country nationals and local residents, who want to promote better access to Latvian cultural stories and space, to an open-air conversation about the classic of Latvian literature "The canon of culture is everywhere".


Together with the walk guide Anita Smeltere, we will learn the canonical values of Latvian literature. Participants are expected to take an active part in the conversation by answering the guide's questions and performing given tasks. 


The tour will last ~ 2.5 hours and will take place in the area around Ziedoņdārzs.

The meeting point is at the park fountain:
