Second PAF

🎭 The third Academic Theater Festival (PAF), which is traditionally organized by the Academy of Arts of the University of Banja Luka and the Center for Visual Arts, was held from June 27 to 30 in the new Student Cultural Center in the University City (campus) in the town of Vrbas.

For three years now, the Academic Theater Festival has been successfully gathering students of drama and related arts from academies and faculties from all over the region, providing them with the opportunity to exchange knowledge, experiences and skills, as well as creating new artistic values, and promoting young theater artists, while encouraging more intensive cooperation and strengthening connection between the Banja Luka Academy of Arts and similar educational institutions from the surrounding area.
