Bolesławiec County:
Gmina Gromadka is renowned for its multicultural traditions, brought by post-war returnees. It is also known for the neighbourly harmony among its residents—people of different nationalities and faiths. Wherever there is harmony and mutual respect, artists are eager to come, certain that their repertoire will appeal to the audience and get them dancing.
Chairman of the County Council Ryszard Kawka and Mirosław Horzempa, Deputy Bolesławiec County Governor, on behalf of Bolesławiec County Governor Tomasz Gabrysiak, presented members of all the groups with letters of congratulations and thanks for preserving invaluable folk traditions.
The Folk Music and Dance Groups’ Gatherings are organized by the Municipal Cultural Centre and Library in Gromadka.
