choinkamuseum201604On Sunday noon, December 18, 2016, the market square in Warka gained a new wintery dimension.

This is due to a project entitled "Warka ¬bears Apples, the Fruit of Excellence" (Jablkowa Warka – Owoc Naszej Pasji), led by W.A.R.K.A. Association (Stowarzyszenie W.A.R.K.A.), KULTYWATOR Local Community Development Association (Stowarzyszenie na Rzecz Rozwoju Lokalnego KULTYWATOR) from Boncza, ANIMATOR Local Community Activities Center (Stowarzyszenie na Rzecz Aktywnosci Lokalnej ANIMATOR), Public Elementary School in Konary, and the Municipal Cultural Institution "Manor at Dluga Street" (Gminna Instytucja Kultury – Dworek na Dlugiej).
The idea behind the project involved each of those institutions decorating a tree. The decorations revolved around the apple to honor the fact that the year 2017 has been declared The Year of Warka as a Town of Apples (Rok Jablkowej Warki). As the trees were being decorated, the market square hosted a Christmas market and featured caroling for all residents. The Casimir Pulaski Museum staff takes pride in decorating their tree.
We are thankful for being a part of the project, and would like to congratulate the organizers on their wonderful idea.
