Dear citizens of the municipality of Bogovinje, this year was the first year in which the municipality of Bogovinje with the support of the Mayor, Mr. Albon Xhemaili started with the project “Municipality Bogovinje Celebrates”, which is intended for all citizens of the municipality of Bogovinje, while the time period in which the events are developed coincides with the arrival of our migrant workers. With music, sports, film and visual art, we have tried to make these summer days more interesting for everyone.
We started organizing the joint watching of the World Cup in the football “Russia 2018”, where we watched the semifinals and the finals on two evenings.

Meanwhile, on July 11, we watched the second semifinal match between Croatia and England. The final between France and Croatia was followed on July 15 in the hall of the municipal council in the settlement Bogovinje.
We continued with an exhibition of paintings by painters who participated in the Art Colony organized by the Art Gallery – Tetovo, which was attended by painters from Ukraine, Turkey, Novi Pazar, Albania and local painters.
