From February 6 to March 22, the National Pavilion of the Republic of Belarus at VDNKh in Moscow will host the "Spring of Light" exhibition by the St. Elisabeth Convent in Minsk.

The project is supported by the Embassy of the Republic of Belarus in the Russian Federation.

As explained by the BOC press service, the spiritual and educational project is dedicated to understanding Lent as a time of inner spiritual labor, purification of the heart, and hope in the Resurrection of Christ.

The exhibition will feature six thematic display cases and an exhibit that sequentially explore the meaning of the weeks of Lent and lead up to the feast of Easter.

Particular attention is given to working with children. Young guests will be treated to a children's lounge, featuring performances by the Batleyka puppet theater. The organizers will also offer creative workshops on the themes of family, kindness, and love.

A separate section of the exhibition will be the "Scriptorium"—a corner recreating the atmosphere of an ancient book workshop.

During the exhibition, a charity exhibition and fair will be held featuring items from the monastery workshops. These items include handmade ceramics, icons, books, beauty and health products, and monastery treats.

Funds raised during the fair will be used to support the social and charitable services of St. Elizabeth Convent.
