Celebration: Cyril and Methodius Day Around the World—Celebrating Slavic Culture

Join us for a captivating celebration of Bulgarian heritage, organized by the International Center in collaboration with the Bulgarian Cultural Center Ripni Kalinke. Together, we'll honor the rich traditions of Bulgarian culture and language, and the extraordinary legacy of Cyril and Methodius — the creators of the Cyrillic alphabet, whose work forever shaped the Slavic world. The event will feature a short film that brings to life the inspiring story of the brothers who transformed the future of Slavic languages. Following the film, there will be a presentation and discussion exploring the historical significance and enduring impact of Cyril, Methodius, and their remarkable creation.  Guests of all ages can also enjoy interactive activities, including: writing your name in Cyrillic, learning Bulgarian words, word hunt games and many more fun and educational experiences!  Whether you're a lifelong enthusiast or discovering Slavic and Bulgarian culture for the first time, this event offers something for everyone. Come explore, learn, and connect with the heart of Bulgaria.
