Roman Night in Narona

Roman Night in Neretva

This year's theme, Constellations, will introduce us to mythology and you will learn that all constellations are inspired by stories. We will get to know a few of the most famous ones, and Auntie the Storyteller will tell the myth of Jason and the Argonauts in the children's corner.

At the art workshop, as every year, we will have fun and let our imagination and creativity guide us! Diocletian's Legion will demonstrate military skills, an attractive musical and stage performance with fire by the band Mad sun rises by Vodorige, and glassblower Antonija Gospić from the Museum of Ancient Glass will show us the art of creating glass beads.

You will be able to learn more about stars and constellations from a lecture by archaeologist Ivana Ožanić Roguljić.

Entrance to the museum's permanent exhibition is free, as is the exhibition Mythological Twins in Narona.

Along with all that, sweet and savory snacks made according to Roman recipes.
