The Bećarac Museum lives and transfers the rich cultural heritage of Slavonia, Baranya, and Syrmia, bringing together tradition bearers. The Museum extends outside its walls and displays the rich tradition, traditional customs, and costumes, inviting all those willing to learn and explore our greatest treasure, i.e. our heritage. The exhibition was created with the aim of enabling everyone to experience the pride of putting on and wearing a traditional costume. In the spirit of the exhibition, the Bećarac Museum organized a public photo shoot in September 2024 and offered everyone an opportunity to walk the Bećarac Square in a traditional costume. The photos taken on that occasion make this exhibition. It has brought together folklore groups and individuals, emphasizing the traditional costumes of pauri, frontier men, and Rama. The exhibition proves that love of tradition will never die if we work on preserving, transferring, and displaying the pride of Šokadija.
