School Stage Lights Up
On February 10, students from Mór Wosinszky Elementary School bring Valahol Európában (Somewhere in Europe) to the stage at the Sándor Petőfi Cultural Center in Bogyiszló. Expect a heartfelt performance from local kids taking on a beloved piece with fresh energy.
Women’s Lives in Focus
February 25 belongs to the Bogyiszló People’s College. The lecture Lányoktól a viszálykodó asszonyokig. Női sorsok és szerepek a bogyiszlói református gyülekezetben (1750–1895) traces women’s roles in the local Reformed congregation—from girls to so‑called quarrelsome wives—across nearly a century and a half. It’s a sharp look at community, faith, and social labels through the ages.
