»Book night« was organised by Tanja Hozner and Maruša Končan.
To celebrate the World Book Day and to encourage reading, we organised a »Book night« on 23 April 2018.
Celebrating the year of Ivan Cankar (the greatest Slovene writer in history), and the 100th anniversary of his death, seemed an excellent opportunity to try to bring his work closer to today's readers, especially young people, in a modern, communicative and dynamic way.
In the frame of the »Book night« between 6 and 9 pm, various workshops were organised (literature corner, art corner, photo corner). The students engaged in writing of comic strips (Moj lajf & Hlapci – Ko angeli omagajo). The students produced »selfies« using various motives, as well as bookmarks. They also actively participated in a discussion with Damjan Debevc, the »Book night« special guest. Damjan Debevc in an actor and a guide to a house in Vrhnika, where Ivan Cankar was born.
Cookies in the shape of Cankar's moustache were baked for the occasion, to help the time pass even quicker.
