On a May Sunday we invite you on a micro-expedition to the Biebrza Valley. During this trip we will talk about the heritage of folk culture — two-thread weaving, Lipsk Easter eggs, the korowaj, wooden cottages, windmills and churches that make up the region’s treasures. In Goniądz we will take part in a craft and folk art fair. In the second part of the day we will touch the wild river, walking the Biebrza Valley on boardwalks laid over the peatlands near Lipsk. REGISTRATION: https://poludnik21.pl PROGRAM: Meeting point: 3.05.2026 (Sunday), 6:30 — parking at the Palace of Culture and Science, opposite Kinoteka. Departure at 6:35. Planned return: about 21:00–21:30. Izba Tkactwa Dwuosnowowego in Janów — the only institution of its kind in Poland, presenting unique two-thread fabrics; the tradition in Janów dates back to the mid-19th century. We will learn the “secret” of two-thread textiles. Biebrza Craft and Folk Art Fair (Goniądz) — stalls of Podlachian artisans: basket makers, potters, honey, Korycin cheese, rye bread and regional food; performances by folk bands. We will also tell the story of a non-existent castle, an old port and the Arian thinker Piotr from Goniądz. Kamienna Stara — the oldest wooden church in Podlasie (a filial church of St. Anne, built around 1609); inside there is, among others, a late Renaissance altar and a stone holy-water stoup from 1609. Kamienna Nowa — the railway station building from the late 19th century (Grodno–Augustów–Suwałki–Olita–Orany line); we will point out the brick station and wooden buildings that recall the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Jałowo – Nowy Lipsk boardwalk — about a 4-kilometre walk on Biebrza boardwalks over the peatlands; a “ferry” crossing also awaits us. Lipsk — a short stop at the monument to the Lipsk Easter egg; a story about eggs, egg symbolism in Slavic culture and the ritual korowaj. The trip will be led by: Adrian Pogorzelski.
