 A colorful graffiti mural, created in connection with the 20th anniversary of Bulgaria's membership in NATO, was unveiled in Blagoevgrad (Southwestern Bulgaria). The street-art work can be seen at 65 Slavyanska Street. It was realized with the support of the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Municipality of Blagoevgrad and the Embassy of Poland in Bulgaria.


The graffiti mural is the work of the talented artists from the graffiti studio "The Graffs". Their project was among the winners of the competition "Bulgaria – More Beautiful in NATO", organized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Blagoevgrad was chosen as one of the locations for graffiti art because of its youthful spirit and preserved traditions. Through the graffiti images, the organizers hope to attract the attention of young people, spark curiosity about lesser-known aspects of NATO's work and to further enhance the knowledge of Bulgaria's membership in the international organization.
