Through a creative educational initiative led by the Folklore Ensemble \u201cLev\u201d and the Bulgarian School \u201cAsbuki\u201d in Rome, young participants explore Bulgaria\u2019s rich cultural heritage while creating their own embroidery-inspired artworks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Decouvertes-bulgarian-embrodery.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project introduces children to the traditional costumes of Bulgaria\u2019s seven folklore regions and the symbolic language woven into every embroidery pattern. Each motif tells a story: the cross represents protection, family, and harmony; the Tree of Life symbolizes strength, continuity, and the connection between generations; sun motifs express hope and vitality; geometric patterns signify fertility and protection; while floral ornaments celebrate nature and renewal. The traditional color palette\u2014red for life and love, dark brown and black for the earth and stability, green for hope, white for purity, and gold for light\u2014adds another layer of meaning to every design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using cardboard, colored rice, cotton bags, and textile markers, children from Italy, Belgium, and other European countries transform these ancient symbols into contemporary works of art. Alongside practical activities, they share their personal reflections on Bulgarian folklore, explaining how its music, dances, costumes, and embroidery strengthen their connection to Bulgarian culture and identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"wp-block-uagb-image-gallery uagb-block-790f913f\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery spectra-image-gallery__layout--carousel\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uagb-slick-carousel uagb-block-790f913f\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media-wrapper\" data-spectra-gallery-image-id=\"6707\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media spectra-image-gallery__media--carousel\">\n\t\t\t\t<picture>\n\t\t\t\t\t<source media=\"(min-width: 1024px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bulgarian_embroidery-1-scaled.jpg\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bulgarian_embroidery-1-1024x768.jpg\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail--carousel\" src=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bulgarian_embroidery-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/picture>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail-blurrer\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail-caption-wrapper spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail-caption-wrapper--overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media-wrapper\" data-spectra-gallery-image-id=\"6706\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media spectra-image-gallery__media--carousel\">\n\t\t\t\t<picture>\n\t\t\t\t\t<source media=\"(min-width: 1024px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bulgarian_embroidery-2-scaled.jpg\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bulgarian_embroidery-2-1024x768.jpg\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail--carousel\" src=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bulgarian_embroidery-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/picture>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail-blurrer\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail-caption-wrapper spectra-image-gallery__media-thumbnail-caption-wrapper--overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='spectra-image-gallery__control-lightbox' tabindex='0'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper spectra-image-gallery__control-lightbox--main\" dir=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img class=\"swiper-lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bulgarian_embroidery-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-lazy-preloader swiper-lazy-preloader-white\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img class=\"swiper-lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bulgarian_embroidery-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-lazy-preloader swiper-lazy-preloader-white\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-button-next\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-button-prev\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button class='spectra-image-gallery__control-lightbox--close' aria-label=\"Close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"https:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox= \"0 0 320 512\"><path d=\"M310.6 361.4c12.5 12.5 12.5 32.75 0 45.25C304.4 412.9 296.2 416 288 416s-16.38-3.125-22.62-9.375L160 301.3L54.63 406.6C48.38 412.9 40.19 416 32 416S15.63 412.9 9.375 406.6c-12.5-12.5-12.5-32.75 0-45.25l105.4-105.4L9.375 150.6c-12.5-12.5-12.5-32.75 0-45.25s32.75-12.5 45.25 0L160 210.8l105.4-105.4c12.5-12.5 32.75-12.5 45.25 0s12.5 32.75 0 45.25l-105.4 105.4L310.6 361.4z\"><\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond embroidery, the initiative brings to life the legends behind Bulgarian folklore.

Through creativity, education, and shared heritage, the project demonstrates that Bulgarian embroidery is not only a treasured tradition but also a living cultural language that continues to inspire young people across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.google.com\/view\/radiochicagointernationale\/programmation\">Radio Chicago Internationale<\/a><a href=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"293\" src=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Logo-3a1-300x293.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Logo-3a1-300x293.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Logo-3a1-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Logo-3a1-500x489.jpg 500w, https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Logo-3a1-491x480.jpg 491w, https:\/\/ycbs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Logo-3a1.jpg 612w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ancient symbols, vibrant colors, and centuries-old traditions are coming to life as children across Europe discover the art of Bulgarian embroidery.
