The KUD Prigorje Križevci cultural and artistic society held a concert titled “Kolovođo, daj kolo povedi” in the Great Hall of the Croatian House. The concert was dedicated to marking two anniversaries: 18 years of the society's activity and 10 years of Ivan Vinković's artistic leadership.
Tihomir Pleše, president of KUD Prigorje, emphasised that the society's 18 years of activity represent years of effort, travel, performances, friendship and love. He stressed that the society proudly preserves its cultural heritage. Pleše added that tradition is not merely a legacy of the past, but a value that must be preserved and passed on to future generations to maintain identity.
The musical programme also featured guest societies: the Croatian Cultural and Artistic Society Petar Zrinski from Vrbovec, the Croatian Artisan-Republican Cultural and Artistic Society Golub from Bjelovar, and the Cultural and Artistic Society Lovor from Trnjan. Their performance was part of the programme marking the aforementioned anniversaries.
The concert was held in a venue that frequently hosts cultural events in Križevci, and the performances included traditional dances and music. The event provided an opportunity for the society's members and guests to gather and for the KUD's work to be presented to a wider audience.
KUD Prigorje Križevci continues to operate as an important bearer of cultural tradition in its community, with the concert serving as one way to mark their long-standing work.
