Today, we had the pleasure of hosting the Ambassador of Israel, Sandra Simoviča, in Liepāja !
During the meeting, Board Member Eva Ciekurze and Content Producer Anna Priedola introduced the ambassador to the 2027 program and discussed potential collaboration.
As the European Capital of Culture in 2027, Liepāja places great importance on international cooperation, and we are excited about the opportunity to strengthen our ties with Israel.
Collaboration in the fields of Israeli culture and arts could offer fantastic opportunities for both our artists and cultural professionals, fostering new projects and initiatives.
We look forward to exciting joint events that will enrich our cultural program and promote cultural exchange between our nations.
We are confident that this meeting marks the first step towards a long-lasting and fruitful partnership!
Many thanks to the Ambassador for the time and support!
