An exhibition entitled “Ethnographic interference” was opened at the Museum of History and Ethnography of Balti within the project “Let’s keep the past to build the future”, IPN reports.
The exhibit includes old objects used in the daily life such as furniture, carpets, ceramics, interior textiles, national costumes, irons and gas lamps.
According to the Museum’s director Ludmila Dobrogeanu, the exhibition forms part of the Romania-Ukraine-Republic of Moldova Cross Border Cooperation Program. It arrived in Balti after it was staged at the Bucovina Village Museum of Romania’s Suceava. From Balti, the exhibits will go to the Regional Museum of Folk Architecture and Life in Chernivsi, Ukraine.
Constantin-Emil Ursu, director general of the Bucovina Village Museum of Suceava, has told IPN that the project was launched a year and a half ago and is financed by the European Union through the European Neighborhood Instrument, being co-financed by the countries participating in the program. Through the Regional Office of Cross Border Cooperation of Suceava, the EU allocated large sums of money for outfitting the museums involved in the project with computers, cameras and other necessary equipment.
