Commemoration of the poet Grigore Vieru

   451

Chisinau City Hall paid tribute to Grigore Vieru, the great poet who sublimely described through his poems the love of mother, country, nation, beauty and the one who praised nature like no other.

Today, the national poet would have turned 86 years old.

In the morning, the General Mayor of Chisinau, Ion Ceban, together with the deputy mayor Angela Cutasevici and representatives of the municipality, laid flowers at the bust of the poet, on the Alley of Classics in the Public Garden "Stefan cel Mare si Sfant".

During the event, Ion Ceban mentioned that Grigore Vieru will stay alive through his lyrics sung by great artists. And all that remains for future generations is to honor his memory, to read the verses laid out with so much grace by the poet, starting with the Alphabet "Albinuţa", a book with which many generations of children grew up.

"We will make every effort to create the "Grigore Vieru" Museum in the capital. It is that gratitude that we can achieve on behalf of the poet," said the mayor of the capital.

For 2021, the Culture Department has provided financial sources in the budget and will initiate the procedure for launching the competition for the design of museum, the elaboration of the estimate of expenses, the specifications for carrying out the repair works.
