Prince Filip at the opening of the "Embroidered Portraits of the Karađorđević Dynasty" trucking craft exhibition
The trucking craft exhibition project, supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Serbia, is being realized by the Museum of Sweets from Kraljevo, and its authors are art historian Marina Lukić Cvetić and Dr. Lidija Cvetić Vučković.
