On Wednesday, November 26, 2025, the Lojze Bratuž Cultural Center hosted the Gala Closing Concert of the cross-border Interreg SPF Italy–Slovenia project “Ljubka’s Trail” (Ljubkina pot – pesem pokrajine in spomina).
The concert marked the official conclusion of the project, which has celebrated and reconnected the cultural and literary heritage of Ljubka Šorli and other women writers of the Goriška region. Through this initiative, Ljubka’s Trail created a cross-border literary path linking places, stories, and artists along the Slovenian–Italian border, highlighting the shared history and creative dialogue of the area.
During the evening, a youth choir accompanied by a seven-member orchestra presented a musical narrative inspired by the themes of landscape, memory, and collective heritage. The performance led the audience on a moving journey through the poetic and cultural landscapes that have shaped generations of writers and communities on both sides of the border.
The project Ljubka’s Trail was financed by the European Union through the GO! 2025 Small Projects Fund under the Interreg VI-A Italy–Slovenia 2021–2027 programme, managed by EZTS GO.
