In those two days we saw how it works in Ogulin where we met professionals and great people, visited House of fairy tales (their latest project).
This festival is made into several spots: around main city square and around it. You can buy books at promo prices, paint faces, buy souvenirs.
At the main square we presented our 3D paints made by Filip Mrvelj. During this festival Filip had open workshop where he made 3D art work with Reygoch and mountain Klek as main motives.
Many people took pictures with our work, and it was real attraction. Secon scene was in the castle nearby. There is House of fairy tales, latest project of City Ogulin. House looks like old house from outside, but inside it is a modern interactive museum.
We thank our hosts for truly pleasant and great weekend, especially Ms Ankica Puskaric. Also, we agreed cooperation in future projects. This festival lasts 3 days every year and we recommend this fairy trip with notice that House of fairy tales is open for visitors every day.
