Participation in this event represents a continuation of the Municipality of Jezero’s ongoing efforts to bring its development opportunities and cultural and tourism offerings closer to a wider audience, while strengthening cooperation with other local communities, associations, and institutions.
During the fair, the Municipality of Jezero’s stand served as a place for meetings, social interaction, and the exchange of experiences with numerous visitors.

Particular attention was drawn by an exhibition of handicrafts by Radenko Simetić, whose works once again generated great interest due to their authenticity and quality craftsmanship.
