Then, with the support of the City Council, 3 symposia were held in 1998, 1999, 2000. the result was 27 sculptures that were located in the central part of the city and in the parks.

In 2014, taking the idea of ​​a legend closely related to our land, we founded the Carpathian Sculptural Path, which aims to create a new cultural and tourist center in the Carpathian region.
