The Regional Museum of Natural History-Plovdiv is hosting a three-day "Ice Festival" which will continue until December 15. The festival is dedicated to Antarctica Day (December 1) and is part of a series of initiatives organized throughout the month to draw attention to the problems of Antarctica, Bulgarian research on the Ice Continent and the lesser-known inhabitants of the polar fauna, said the Regional Museum of Natural History-Plovdiv.


Among the highlights of the "Ice Festival" are creative face-painting workshops on the theme "My favourite polar inhabitant", colouring of clay figurines, as well as a presentation of the popular children’s series "Bulgaroznaiko". There will be a drawing competition on the theme "The Kingdom of Ice". During the festival, visitors will have the opportunity to view an exhibition of the competition paintings. After the event, the artworks will be included in a charity bazaar to support children from the Crisis Center in Plovdiv.
