The National Institute for Rural Culture and Heritage organizes many events to promote folk culture. It opens its season in early spring with Women's Day for Folk. Usually starting in May, it launches its "Summer Scene" series, which presents the folklore of various regions of Poland. In autumn, it invites to the European Heritage Days, the Warsaw Bread Festival and the Independence Day. The series of outdoor events concludes with the extremely colorful Christmas Fair. The Institute is a co-organizer or partner of many festivals, fairs and reviews where authentic traditional culture is presented.
