The Vilnius Ethnic Culture Center is hosting an unusual Mardi Gras this year. Adapting to the quarantine conditions, we invite you to celebrate them without gatherings, but complying with the essential elements of the celebration: covering the day of Mardi Gras with a mask, eating a full meal, forgetting all the evils of winter and waiting. for a better and brighter spring.
Starting Friday, a 10-foot-long snow sculpture bearing the name of Korona will be placed on the bank of the Neris River near the King Mindaugas Bridge.
Moré’s appearance reflects current problems: the head is decorated with a crown and, instead of the hands, elements that mimic virus particles. We invite you to visit it and take photos of it, but we warn you that only one house can visit it.
Usually during Mardi Gras, More is burned or otherwise destroyed, symbolically ridding itself of all oppressive concerns and repelling the forces of evil. However, this time he lets himself dissolve, hoping that the pandemic that has plagued Lithuania in recent years will disappear with More.
