Until early June, the Elmo Riig Viljandi Ugala theatre’s main hall will host the photographic exhibition, “Kuuri tagant paistab Viljandi.” This display offers visitors an immersive look into the history and enduring narratives associated with the town of Viljandi. The exhibition curates a collection of photographs designed to transport the audience into the heart of the region, focusing specifically on the village’s character and the stories interwoven with its landscape. The photographic exhibit serves as a visual journey through the lifeblood of the community, presenting both the tangible structures and the intangible memories that define the area.

It delves into the unique culture that has developed around the central theme of the kuuride—the local village life—showcasing how these settings have influenced the people who inhabit them. Complementing the visual narrative is the accompanying literary work, a book titled “Kuuri tagant paistab Viljandi.” This publication originated from the very concept behind the photo exhibition, offering a deeper textual context to the images presented. Together, the visual and written components aim to provide a comprehensive portrait of the region.

The exhibition invites the public to reflect upon the deep connection between place and personal history. Visitors can explore how the natural lood—the environment and the stories rooted within it—has shaped the identity of viljandi. By presenting a curated selection of images and narratives, the display encourages a renewed appreciation for the cultural depth and the rich tapestry of human experience found within the local kuuride.

It stands as a significant cultural event, allowing both residents and visitors to connect with the enduring spirit of the community.
