SUMMARY:On the Edge of Summer: Neža Prah Seničar and Urška Henigman
DESCRIPTION:The Miran Jarc Library Novo mesto invites visitors to an event from its On the Edge of Summer series\, taking place on Thursday\, 18 June 2026\, at 7:00 PM in the Growing Book Park (Park rastoče knjige) in Novo mesto. \nNeža Prah Seničar and Urška Henigman are engaging journalists and co-authors of Prvič (First Time)\, a multimedia project for young people. Their popular programme\, which explores all aspects of teenage life openly and without prejudice\, has now been transformed into a book designed to support every family navigating the challenges of puberty. The discussion will be moderated by Carmen L. Oven. \nTheir book Hormones and Demons serves as a bridge between teenagers and their parents. Drawing on the experiences of well-known Slovenians as well as young adults who have recently emerged from adolescence\, the authors address the topics that most commonly shape—and often complicate—the teenage years\, including subjects that many still consider taboo. In an approachable\, engaging and uncensored manner\, they explore themes such as self-image and the influence of social media\, relationships\, first love\, sexuality\, harassment\, mental health\, emotional struggles and loneliness\, social and academic pressures\, identity\, and growing up in the modern world. \nThe event will be held in Slovenian. \nEvent website.

SUMMARY:D&D Open Session Novo mesto: Stormy Voyage
DESCRIPTION:The Amulet D20 group invites you to a Dungeons & Dragons open session titled Stormy Voyage\, which will take place on Saturday\, 20 June 2026 at 16:00 at Goga Bookstore and Café\, Glavni trg\, Novo mesto. \nThe crew has been trapped aboard a ship for three weeks\, where seemingly nothing is happening – only the long wait for arrival at their destination\, although at least another week of sailing still lies ahead. The monotony of everyday life is becoming increasingly exhausting\, and the crew longs for something to break the routine. But storm clouds are gathering on the horizon – do they signal change? \nThe session is suitable for both beginners and experienced players. It is designed for a group of 3 to 5 players at level 3. Participants may prepare their own character in advance\, choose from pre-generated characters\, or ask the Dungeon Master (DM) for assistance in creating a character during the session. \nThe game is played using the Dungeons & Dragons 5e (2014) system. \nRegistration is available via the link. \nEvent website.

SUMMARY:RE:MISIJA – Concert of the Krka Wind Orchestra at Grm Castle
DESCRIPTION:The Krka Wind Orchestra invites you to a special concert titled RE:MISIJA\, which will take place on Saturday\, 27 June 2026 at 20:00 at Grm Castle. The concert will be conducted by Matevž Novak. \nThe soloists will be Marko Jenič (trumpet)\, Blaž Avbar (trumpet)\, Matej Rihter (trumpet)\, and Edita Miklič (vocals). \nPart of the proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana (Department for the Treatment of Malignant Lymphomas). \nLife sometimes unexpectedly brings us to a halt and places us in situations we do not choose. In such moments\, we come to realise that impermanence is not the opposite of life\, but rather its deepest value. \nThis concert under the starry sky at Grm Castle was inspired by long-time orchestra member and trumpeter Marko Jenič\, who was diagnosed with lymphoma. The illness temporarily interrupted his musical and teaching career\, but after a demanding treatment process he now looks ahead with hope and renewed strength. His experience highlights that healthcare is not only systems and numbers\, but above all people who stand by patients in their most difficult moments. His story reminds us that health is one of life’s greatest values\, often taken for granted. \nThrough this concert\, the orchestra wishes to express gratitude\, support\, and solidarity\, and to contribute where help means hope\, faster diagnosis\, and better chances for all who face similar challenges. \nVisitors are invited to a summer evening of music\, connection\, and humanity\, dedicated to those who bravely fight their battles and those who stand beside them. Every contribution matters. Every presence matters. Every kind thought matters. \nTickets are available via online sales at olaii.com and at physical sales points including Petrol\, MOL\, Shell\, INA\, 3DVA kiosks\, and Logo outlets. Admission is 18 EUR. \nIn case of rain\, the concert will take place on Sunday\, 28 June 2026 at 20:00. \nEvent website.
