On the last Sunday of May, the Gothic Hall will be filled with flamenco sounds. The atmosphere of southern Spain will be created by the dancer Anita Sułkowska, vocalist Borja Soto and guitarist Damian Kowaliński. The concert will be accompanied by the tasting and sale of Spanish regional products. We invite you on a journey to Mediterranean culture.

Initially, she was encouraged to flamenco by classical Spanish music and films by Carlos Saura. She went to the first class with a slight reserve, but this impulse gave birth to her passion.

She is also the founder of the "Flamenco Ensemble" with its original compositions.
