60 students and teachers of arts schools, who had been awarded at national and international  contests, have been presented prices at a Gala Festival of young talents "Moldova creativă-25".

The event took place at the National Arts Museum, as the laureates got awards and money from a fund totaling 180,000 lei. The distinctions have been handed by Culture Minister Monica Babuc. 

The award-winners say they worked a lot to be a success.

"The Romanian carpet, the Basarabian carpet, are now part of the world cultural heritage. As many as 200 items are part of this heritage and two of them belong to us,” Monica Babuc said about the Ministry’s achievements.

The Gala is part of the National Culture Days marked on January 14-15.
