THE ADDRESS OF THE GENERAL CONSUL OF THE REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA
Here it is . Finally . The exhibition Us and Them without Frontiers , what else .
A tour of the Technical Museum of Slovenia ’ s exhibition to the United States has been planned for quite a while . Unfortunately , the new “ normality ” of the COVID-19 pandemic crushed all our plans to the point that we almost gave up hope on showing it to the American public and the Slovenian immigrant community .
So it happens that the presentation of the scientific , engineering , technological and other achievements of successful Slovenians , both men and women , in the United States coincides with the 30th anniversary of Slovenia ’ s independence . It is an extra reward for all the effort invested in the preparation of the exhibition installations in Cleveland , Milwaukee , Chicago and Washington , as well as over eighteen months of uncertainty , waiting to be finally able to meet in person , like human beings normally do , not over some high-tech web application . Which is perfectly fine , it just doesn ’ t feel the same .
