The Bucharest Municipality Museum welcomed children at the theater play “The Legend of Bucur”, staged by Artextract Association, on Tuesday, July 19th, at the Suțu Palace. The play, specially designed and staged for children, tells the story of the shepherd Bucur and the young lady Dâmboviţa, associated with the founding of Bucharest.
On this occasion, the museum awarded the children that took part in the competition “Museums in Colors”.
