VOLUMEN - special history book fair near Cluj

The 2017 season starts shortly at Camp Virtus, my NGO's historical park in the making near Cluj-Napoca, in Salicea. The opening event, prepared for April 29th, is entitled VOLUMEN as it mainly consists of a special book fair, focusing on history books, periodicals, and articles (extracts). Old and new history books are available in English, Romanian, even Slovak, dealing with periods between Classical Antiquity and the Early Modern Period in Central and Eastern Europe - mostly Romania. There will be free history books, special prices for author volumes, and history-inspired bookmarks.

We shall use the occasion to present a special project of ours, Labyrinth through time, financed by the National Cultural Fund Administration of Romania. Those who wish to become involved this year, together with their families, in reenactment weekend workshops and an autumn festival, are welcome to find out all about it!

Labyrinth through time

There will be lots of action in 2017 at Camp Virtus, as Virtus Antiqua has been granted funding for a special project. "Labyrinth through time" [Romanian: Labirint prin timp] consists of two parts - weekends of experimental archaeology workshops with families of volunteers at the camp near Cluj-Napoca and a reenactment event when an actual labyrinth shall spring out over a good hectares of land on the same location. The cultural project benefits from funding from the National Cultural Fund Administration of the Romanian government in the Cultural Patrimony section. The initiative also has the support of several NGOs from Cluj-Napoca and several media partners.
