This artistic project was combined with the Arbëreshë Little Singers Festival, an event aimed at preserving, promoting and enhancing the Arbëresh language. By involving young people from different Arbëreshë communities and even a participant from Montenegro, the festival created a real cultural bridge.

The fulcrum of this initiative was to promote the Arbëreshe culture, not only to preserve it, but also to make it emerge in the tourist panorama of Plataci.

Mural art, a popular art accessible to all and capable of telling stories through colors and shapes, has become a powerful tool for transmitting the cultural heritage of the region.

 

Over 30 murals were painted during the different editions of the competition, decorating the picturesque alleys of the historic center. These works of art capture scenes of daily life, glimpses of landscapes, traditional costumes, ancient crafts and scenes of peasant life. But they also represent the country’s coat of arms, the link with music and dance and historical figures of national and international importance such as Skanderbeg and Mother Teresa of Calcutta, the latter of Albanian origin, immortalized surrounded by boys and girls of various ethnic groups and accompanied from his famous poem, the hymn to Life.

Ki mendim e bën bashkë me Festivallin e këngatarët të vogël arbëreshë, një projekt çë do të vjon e vllerëzon gjuhen arbëreshe. Me pjesmarrjen e trimavet e kopilavet çë vijin nga shumë katunde arbëreshë, edhe një nga Montenegri, festivalli ka kriosur vërtet një pomd kullturore.

Shurbesa më e rëndësishme qe fillimi e kulltures arbëreshe jo vetëm për të vjoheh ma edhe për fillimin e Pllatënit.

Artja e murales-ëvet çë rrëfen storien me kullure e furme e do të dërgon trashgimtarin kullturor e vendit.
