The RISE UP Travelling Exhibition arrived in Skopje, North Macedonia, on 11 June 2025, where it was presented under the title Tsi?! Што?! — the project’s question rendered in Aromanian and Macedonian. The stop placed the Aromanian language and its community at the centre of the conversation.
RISE UP TRAVELLING EXHIBITION 2025 Hosted at Europe House Skopje and open to the public free of charge from 12:00 to 22:00, the exhibition brought together the local Aromanian community, artists and visitors for a full day of encounters, live music and conversation around linguistic diversity.
Each artist was invited to answer two questions: What would you say to your community? What would you say to people outside your community? Through their artworks and contextual panels available in Aromanian, Macedonian and English, the exhibition opened a space to reflect on identity, belonging and the right to speak one’s own language.
Our heartfelt thanks to Europe House Skopje and to the Aromanian community of North Macedonia for their hospitality and for keeping their language alive.
RISE UP – Revitalising Languages and Safeguarding Cultural Diversity is a European Union-funded project under Horizon Europe. It supports endangered (minoritised) language communities across Europe by developing tools, research, and networks to promote language revitalisation. The project brings together eight partners from six countries and focuses on five case study communities: Aranese (Spain), Aromanian/Vlach (Balkans), Burgenland Croatian (Austria), Cornish (UK), and Seto (Estonia/Russia).
