You are cordially invited to a home-grown evening with guests Alojz Rovan, graduate in civil engineering, and Celje photographer Rajko Vodišek.

The people of Celje have been following the progress of the Rafting Bridge with interest since the beginning of its construction and eagerly awaiting its completion. Many have also taken some photographs during this time, including Mr. Rajko Vodišek from Celje, who took over 700 photos from the "first shovel" until the last days.

Mr. Vodišek came to the construction site almost every day and a few times to the local history department on the second floor of the library, from where there was a good view of the entire construction site. Mr. Vodišek entrusted the valuable photo-documentary material to the local history department of the Celje library for safekeeping, and we presented selected images at an exhibition that will be on display in the library lobby over the summer.

You can view the exhibited photographs on Kamra. On Kamra, the portal of digitized Slovenian cultural heritage, we have also published the entire story about the creation of the photo collection and the library's collaboration with Mr. Vodišek.
