Zalipie, poljska vas v jugovzhodnem delu države, je postala mednarodno znana zaradi svoje unikatne tradicije poslikavanja. Ta tradicija, ki se je začela v 19. stoletju, je postal del vsakdanjega življenja prebivalcev vasi. Kljub temu, da so bile v preteklosti peči pogosto puščale temne madeže na zidovih, so ženske začele krasiti stene s preprostimi cvetličnimi ornamenti. Sčasoma so motivi postali vse bolj zapleteni in bogati, poslikavanje pa se je razširilo tudi na zunanje stene. Tako je nastal prepoznaven slog, ki danes velja za enega najpomembnejših primerov poljske ljudske umetnosti. Cvetlični vzorci in živahne barve so vas spremenili v pravo galerijo na prostem. Zalipie je postala znana kot „najbolj pisana vas na Poljskem“ zaradi svoje nenavadne in barvite umetniške tradicije.
Ključna vloga v ohranjanju te tradicije pripada ženskam iz vasi, ki že desetletja prenašajo znanje in tehnike poslikavanja na mlajše generacije. Vsaka hiša ima svoj slog, skupni element pa so razkošni cvetlični motivi, ki simbolizirajo povezanost z naravo in lokalno skupnostjo. Ena najbolj znanih umetnic je bila Felicja Curyłowa, katere hiša je danes preurejena v muzej in predstavlja eno glavnih znamenitosti vasi. Če obiščete Zalipie, se lahko sprehodite po vasi, obiščete etnografske zbirke in spoznate lokalno tradicijo, ki je še danes živa. Posebej živahno je v času vsakoletnega tekmovanja v poslikavanju. Zalipie je zaradi svoje nenavadne in barvite umetniške tradicije postalo mednarodno prepoznavno. Vas dokazuje, kako se lahko iz vsakdanje potrebe razvije kulturna dediščina, ki desetletja navdihuje nove generacije in privablja obiskovalce z vsega sveta.
Na drugem mestu se nahaja festival narodnozabavne glasbe v Števerjanu, ki je tradicionalno potekal prvi konec tedna v juliju. Organizatorji, ki vključujejo Slovensko katoliško prosvetno društvo Frančišek B. Sedej in množico prostovoljcev, so v zadnjih letih ustvarjali praznik glasbe, ki ga je preprosto treba doživeti. Dogodek vsako leto poveže ves kraj in ljudi vseh generacij, saj pri njegovem nastajanju sodeluje celotna skupnost. Kot edini festival narodnozabavne glasbe v Italiji ima pomembno vlogo med Slovenci v zamejstvu. Cenijo ga tudi slovenski ansambli, saj je poleg Ptujskega festivala ena od le dveh priložnosti, da se predstavijo z igranjem v živo pred občinstvom in strokovno komisijo. Letošnji festival bo potekal v dveh tekmovalnih delih. V petek, 3. julija, bo ob 20. uri na sporedu polfinale, v nedeljo, 5. julija, se bo ob 17. uri začel finale. Vsi se bodo predstavili z dvema skladbama, ki ju bodo odigrali in odpeli v živo, v slovenskem jeziku ali zgolj instrumentalno. Prva bo iz zakladnice slovenske narodnozabavne glasbe, druga bo izvirna, tako po melodiji kot besedilu, in jo bo ansambel prvič predstavil na števerjanskem odru. Letošnja novost bo nov voditeljski par, saj bosta polfinalni in finalni večer povezovala Valentina Oblak in Evgen Ban. V soboto, 4. julija, bo ob 19. uri namesto tekmovanja na sporedu festivalska veselica z glasbo v živo. Tekmovalno prizorišče se bo spremenilo v plesišče, vstop na veselico bo prost. Posebnost števerjanskega festivala sta prijetno druženje ter bogata kulinarična in vinska ponudba. Tudi letos bodo zato na svoj račun prišli ljubitelji dobre hrane in vina, med drugim bodo lahko okusili znamenitega števerjanskega piščanca.
V Gornjem Gradu se je 24. junij 2026 odvil prvi Festival dediščine Gornjegrajskega, ki je bil odlično uspeli. Festivalski program vključeval etno-tržnici, tradicionalne gastronomsko ponudbe v lokalnih gostilnah, glasbene nastope, odprtje razstave dokumentarnih fotografij iz zadnjega leta življenja Janeza Mavriča, premierno projekcijo kratkega filma o njem, ter okroglo mizo z naslovom „Pomen zbirateljstva in dediščine za lokalno skupnost in narod“. Sodelujoči na okrogli mizi so razpravljali o pomenu raziskovanja, ohranjanja in promoviranja kulturne dediščine, ki mora po besedah dr. Janeza Bogataja nujno potekati v sodelovanju med zbiratelji in stroko, saj je „kakovostna dokumentacija o vsakem posameznem predmetu v zbirki predpogoj za vse nadaljnje korake“. V nasprotnem primeru lahko, kot je poudarila dr. Trnovec, pride tudi do spornih praks, kakršna je serviranje juhe iz kokarskega klobuka, ki je bil tradicionalno namenjen izključno kuhanju zelja ali repe in klobas. Sporna je tudi zgolj uporaba besedne zveze „kulinarika iz klobuka“, torej brez pridevnika kokarski, kar pomeni, da nekdo hote ali nehote briše njegovo provenienco. Na drugi strani je pozitivno prakso ohranjanja spomina na kokarske lončarje predstavila Andreja Zupan, sopobudnica poti Kokarski klobuk. Dr. Bojana Rogelj Škafar iz Slovenskega etnografskega muzeja je Mavričeve dneve ocenila kot sklop dogodkov, „ki bogatijo vse, lokalno skupnost, stroko in dediščino.“
V Cerkvenjaku so danes imeli povorko „Obudimo stare čase“, s katero se vsako leto spomnijo na stare čase, prednike, stare običaje in tudi na kak dogodek. Povorka sega že v prejšnjo stoletje. Leta 1975 so se naši zanesenjaki odločili, predvsem na pobudo žal že pokojnega Stanka Žmavca, očeta današnjega župana, da naredijo povorko. Povorka starih običajev je potekala pri nas že 50 let.
