International competition in Poland: students of Music School No. 3 win Grand Prix
Members of the folk music ensemble “Volyniany” from Lutsk Music School No. 3 returned from Poland, where they took part in the international competition and festival of folklore, dance, and music “Winter Inspiration” held in Zakopane, Poland.

The event brought together performers from various artistic disciplines and categories and became an important platform for international cultural exchange, creative interaction, and professional development.
