Preservation, development and contemporary presentation and promotion of the cultural heritage and Thracian ethnography in the village of Kalekovets.

" Culture centreProbuda-1927 - Kalekovets village" has been in existence for 90 years. It, as well as all community centers on the territory of Maritza municipality, are centers of local amateur activity, guardians of traditions, customs and Bulgarian folklore. More than 50 years behind the walls of the cetre, built in 1961, th centre and its amateur guides keep the local customs, folklore, cultural values, household items, authentic costumes and musical instruments. Today the centre continues its active activity and seeks opportunities to adapt to the needs of modern man and at the same time to continue to preserve and develop the cultural and social life of the village. The inhabitants of Kalekovets are 2739 people, 377 are children up to 13 years old and 590 are youths between 13 and 29 years of age, according to data provided by the City Hall. The centre is active and follows the mission of a public institution that performs educational and enlightenment functions and amateur activity. This project proposal presents a main task directly related to the centre mission: To preserve, develop, present and promote the cultural heritage and Thracian ethnography in the village of Kalekovets in a modern and attractive way so as to enrich the knowledge and awakens the interest of children, young people, parents, residents of Kalekovets and guests from Maritza Municipality and beyond her. By putting this task and implementing the project, we want to solve a long-standing problem in the centre. At a time of technology, global communications, and countless new attractive ways of gathering information, a forgotten but little precious cultural heritage - household items, authentic costumes, musical instruments, for years they have been dusting up in a still more dusty room. In order not to remain forever forgotten, the current project sets out specific goals and activities to preserve, develop and present this cultural heritage in a way that is adequate to our reality.
