Latvian and Lithuanian nations were called by their common name – the Balts – since ancient times. Their everyday life style and values of that time were similar. The base of life was nature, its resources. By project’s activities, we suggest to search for common values. They can be nature, its resources, how to live more beautiful while using things provided by nature and not to make harm to it. To transfer ancient values into the present-day our life. Similar ancient history, common beginnings, the Baltic way of life can become the pretext for communication in nowadays. Two Universities: Latvian University of Agriculture and Šiauliai university are partners in this project. During the project several seminars, trainings and excursion will be organized to maintain and continue the link between university and rural communities. The project’s events will take places in Lithuania (Šiauliai and Šniūraičiai village) and Latvia (Jelgava, Auce village). Themes of seminars and trainings will be related with usage of natural resources, and workshops will be based on pagan and baltic symbols. The final result – an exhibition of created artistic pieces, in a certain space in Lithuania and Latvia, grown “live” sculptures as well as gained knowledge and skills. One of the aims is to film and collect a material about the process of creation and growing of “live” sculptures.
