Our final event brought together young people from Kaunata and Eastern Latvia Technology Secondary School to look back at the journey and results of Latgolas Lizeika — but definitely not just by sitting and listening!Young people took part in different hands-on workshops: they created their own “lizeika” (spoon) from Latgalian clay, prepared and tasted traditional asuškas, learned Latgalian dance steps, searched for Latgale’s lakes, poetry and other cultural treasures, and tested activities from our website.
It was especially nice to see participants recognising people and places they had discovered through the platform — including Sovvaļnīks, Aleksandrs Lubāns, Andrupene Farmstead and Kroma Kolns — while learning about some of our other project adventures through the presentation.
And for the finale — an interactive illusionist Edžus show, full of jokes, surprises and audience participation, which even brought the Latgolas Lizeika logo to life on stage! ✨
A perfect way to celebrate everything we have explored, created and learned together — and to finish the project with Latgale not only in our minds, but also in our hands, tastes, steps and hearts. 💛
