On Friday, 8 August, young people from Poland, Germany and Italy said a formal farewell to the organizers of the international project and representatives of the local government of Gmina Zgorzelec and Zgorzelec County. For two weeks, the workcamp participants carried out maintenance work and archaeological workshops with the support of archaeologist Paweł Zubrzycki from the Lusatian Museum.
During the farewell meeting, the young people described their achievements in four languages, including creating a metal sculpture illustrating the music of Olivier Messiaen and their archaeological discoveries. The workcamp also included time for participant integration and a cultural programme. The young people also learned about the history of the region and the place where they worked.
This was the seventh edition of the project, whose implementation was made possible by the work of the Meetingpoint Music Messiaen Association in cooperation with many organizations. The initiative was supported by: Gmina Zgorzelec, the Foundation for Entrepreneurship Development, the Lusatian Museum, the City of Zgorzelec, the Saxon Cultural Foundation and the Polish-German Youth Office.
