150 years of professional education in Bulgaria

In Ruse, during the month of Bulgarian education and culture, a remarkable anniversary will be celebrated - 150 years of professional education in Bulgaria. A memorial sign dedicated to this important anniversary date will be unveiled on May 20 in front of the Woodworking High School.

The idea for the memorial sign was the work of engineer Valery Mashev and arch. Simeon Rangelov. The place is symbolic - the high school is the first vocational school in our country. Sculptors Georgi Radulov and Daniel Kanchev took up the creation of the sign.

For the celebration of this anniversary, an Initiative Committee was created with the chairman Prof. Angel Smrikarov and the participation of the Municipality of Ruse, the Regional Department of Education, the University of Ruse, the Regional History Museum, the Regional Library "Lyuben Karavelov" and the State Archive-Ruse.

The entire organization of the event is in the hands of the "Knowledge" foundation, managed by Miryana Masheva, who is one of the main drivers of the celebration of this anniversary.

After the consecration of the memorial sign, scheduled for 3 p.m., a thematic round table will be held, which will start at 4 p.m. in the "Siemens" hall of the University of Ruse. At the conclusion of the event, honorary plaques will be presented to deserving retired specialist teachers from the region.
