Particular attention was drawn to the exhibition “Ceramics: Imprint”, part of the permanent exhibition “Folk Culture of the Serbs in the 19th and 20th Century”, as well as the exhibition “In Search of the Lost Archive”, organized by members of the Circle of Serbian Sisters. In addition to the exhibition programme, visitors were able to find suitable gifts in the Museum gift shop and relax in the pleasant atmosphere of the Ornament Café.
In the spirit of the Christmas holidays, the Ethnographic Museum also organized a Christmas Concert by the Choir of AKUD “Ivo Lola Ribar”. The festive choral programme brought together tradition and holiday spirit through performances of works from world, Serbian, and Russian sacred music, as well as selected folk melodies, providing the audience with a memorable musical experience.
The year ahead is of exceptional importance for the Ethnographic Museum. We will be marking the great jubilee of 125 years since the founding of the Ethnographic Museum in Belgrade. Manak’s House will commemorate 140 years since the birth of Hristifor Crnilović, who was instrumental in creating one of the finest ethnographic collections in the central Balkans. This year also marks 100 years since the publication of the first issue of the Ethnographic Herald.
All of these anniversaries confirm the continuity, significance, and vibrant role of the Ethnographic Museum as a guardian of cultural heritage and a place where tradition meets contemporary life.
