SUMMARY:Literary Evening: Slavko Jerič at Goga Bookshop
DESCRIPTION:Goga Publishing House invites you to a literary evening\, which will take place on Thursday\, 7 May 2026 at 8:00 p.m. at the Goga Bookshop and Café in Novo mesto. \nGoga Bookshop will host the renowned sports journalist Slavko Jerič\, who has recently published a selection of essays on society and sport\, Bread and Games\, with Goga Publishing House. \nThe essay collection Bread and Games shows that sports stories are\, in fact\, stories about motivation\, fairness\, the meaning and value of defeat\, commercialisation\, equality\, and more. They are stories about Luka Dončić\, Andre Agassi\, Petra Majdič and Simone Biles—about exceptional\, inspiring\, trapped and broken individuals. A long-time sports journalist\, Jerič approaches sport from a personal perspective—both through the eyes of a child who once dreamed of becoming a sports star\, and as a father of a young athlete for whom he does not wish a professional sports career. He also reflects on sport as spectacle\, business\, and a field of social tensions. \nThe author will discuss the book with journalist Igor Vidmar. \nThe event is part of the bookshop’s cultural programme\, co-financed by the Slovenian Book Agency. \nThe event will be held in Slovenian. \nEvent website

SUMMARY:Land Art in the Vineyard
DESCRIPTION:As part of its 140th anniversary\, Grm Novo mesto – Center for Biotechnology and Tourism is organising a unique international art and horticultural event at the Šolska zidanica on Trška Gora\, taking place on 13 and 14 May 2026. \nIn collaboration with five European countries\, participants will create interpretations of the typical vineyard landscape of Trška Gora and use materials sourced directly from the vineyard and its immediate surroundings to design large-scale sustainable installations. Alongside students from floristry and horticultural technician programmes\, as well as other interested participants\, renowned florists and land artists from the Netherlands\, Belgium\, Iceland and Croatia will also take part. \nOn 14 May 2026 at 10:00\, the wider public and media are invited to attend and observe the creative process. \nLand art (also known as earth art or environmental art) is an artistic movement that emerged in the 1960s and 1970s\, in which artworks are created directly in nature using natural materials such as soil\, stone\, water and wood. These works are often monumental and site-specific\, and are frequently left to natural erosion\, emphasising their impermanence. \nEvent website

SUMMARY:Concert: Prismojeni profesorji Bluesa
DESCRIPTION:LokalPatriot invites visitors to a presentation of the new album by the band Prismojeni profesorji Bluesa\, which will take place on Saturday\, 16 May 2026\, at 8.30 pm at the LokalPatriot youth club in Novo mesto. \nPrismojeni profesorji Bluesa are a band and a group of friends who have been proving for over a decade that blues can be raw\, honest\, and wildly entertaining. On Saturday\, 16 May at 8.30 pm\, they will present their new album Walk This Road Alone at LokalPatriot. \nThe band consists of Julijan Erič (guitar\, vocals)\, Miha Ribarič (bass)\, Zlatko Djogić (drums\, vocals)\, and Aleš Uhan (keyboards). \nTheir concerts are more than just performances – they are true musical road trips\, or rather\, a rodeo. After three released albums and a period of creating music in Slovene\, they are now returning to their roots with a set of original English-language songs that lean more closely towards the blues tradition. \nIn May\, they return to Novo mesto for a concert full of surprises and extended improvisations – everything lovers of 1960s and 1970s music (and more contemporary genres) could wish for. Some might call it a “hippie vibe”\, while others are already preparing their dancing shoes. This time\, Julijan’s amplifier may well go up to 12\, while Aleš has swapped a speaker for a Hammond organ and instead bought a vintage cabinet. \nExpect the unexpected. Some new tracks are already making their way onto the radio waves\, while others will be heard live for the very first time at the concert. \nEvent website.

SUMMARY:Literary Evening: Urša Majcen at Goga Bookshop
DESCRIPTION:Goga Publishing House invites you to a literary evening with poet\, playwright and screenwriter Urša Majcen\, author of the collection of plays Exercises with a Fish\, recently published by Goga Publishing House. The event will take place on Thursday\, 21 May 2026\, at 8:00 p.m. at the Goga Bookshop and Café in Novo mesto. \nExercises with a Fish is a selection of four dramatic works written between 2020 and 2024. The play The Drama Does Not Exist is a parodic theatrical documentary that\, with sharpness and humour\, addresses the real-life decay of the Ljubljana Drama Theatre building and its internal politics. Exercise with a Fish\, which essentially remains an exercise in style\, explores the position of a young woman in art and in the world through shifts between dramatic genres and humour. Children of Light addresses apathy as a consequence of the sense of entrapment experienced by younger generations\, who in a declining world are neither able nor willing to truly act. In Orpheus and Eurydice\, the author most fully connects with the poetic tradition and delves into the exploration of the word itself\, its power and its relationship to the most intimate. \nThe literary evening will be moderated by Liu Zakrajšek. \nThe event is part of the bookshop’s cultural programme\, co-financed by the Slovenian Book Agency. \nThe event will be held in Slovenian. \nEvent website
