The traveling exhibitions of e-valuation 3.0 in four cities across the country are made possible with the support of the National Culture Fund under the “One-Year Grant” program—2022, with the DA LAB Foundation as the beneficiary. The exhibition in Varna is also supported by ReBankers, the Municipality of Varna, and the Singer-Zahariev Foundation. The next traveling exhibition featuring projects from e-valuation will take place from August 17 to 27 at the Center for Contemporary Art and Library in Burgas.
