Holidays

International Day of the Puppeteer

March 21 in history ( 24 events)


The idea to celebrate around the world International Day of Puppetry, or World Puppetry Day, came to the famous figure of the puppet theater Jivad Zolfagariho from Iran.

In 2000, at the XVIII Congress of the International Union of Puppet Theater Figures (Union Internationale de la Marionnette, UNIMA) in Magdeburg, he made this proposal for discussion.

The discussion about the place and time of this celebration was very lively, but this issue was never solved. Only two years later, at a meeting of the UNIMA International Council, the date of the celebration was determined.

The tradition of the festival of puppeteers from all over the world opened the day on March 21, 2003. From this time on, all the professionals and fans of the puppet theater are celebrating the International Day of the puppeteer.

UNIMA President Margaret Niculescu appealed to all figures of the puppet theater with an appeal to turn the day of March 21 into an exciting ritual for the glory of the puppet theater: "Let puppet shows play on this day, hold discussions, arrange meetings, let all professionals and lovers of one of the oldest art forms - Puppet Theater! Let all around become participants of our holiday! Let everyone be in the puppet theater! ".

And according to the famous figure of the Indian puppet theater Kapila Vatsyayan: "The world of the puppet theater is the innocence of childhood, its purity and immediacy, and the wisdom of the philosopher. For me, the puppet theater always has a special charm, because it is a unique phenomenon in the field of art: in its amazing simplicity and, at the same time, in its polysemy, this is a real universe of mysterious and imaginative, mysterious and fantasy. Emerging in real time and space, the puppet theater returns to our souls the true essence ... ".

And today this holiday is widely celebrated in many countries of the world not only by the professionals themselves, but also by fans of this kind of art. Traditionally, on this day, the most unusual puppet shows, creative meetings, concerts and other festive events are organized by the workers of the theaters and creative puppet groups.


World Poetry Day

In 2000, at the 30th session of the UNESCO General Conference (in Paris), World Poetry Day was first celebrated. This Day, according to UNESCO, is intended to create in the mass media a positive image of poetry as a truly modern art, open to people.


International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination

International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination is celebrated annually on March 21. On this day in 1960, the police opened fire and killed 69 people during a peaceful demonstration in Sharpeville, South Africa, protesting the laws of the apartheid regime on the compulsory certification of Africans in South Africa. And by decision of the XXI session of the UN General Assembly on October 26, 1966, this day became the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.


The International Day of Forests

The International Day of Forests or World Day for the Protection of Forests was founded in 1971 and since then it is celebrated annually on March 21. The problem of preserving the forest and its wealth is today among the most important environmental challenges for all countries of the world. In recent years, the trends associated with the deforestation of the Earth have caused concern not only among environmentalists, but also among the entire international community.


International Day of Man with Down Syndrome

March 21 is the International Day of Man with Down Syndrome. This date entered the calendar in 2006. The initiative belonged to the participants of the VI symposium devoted to this topic. The date of March 21 was not chosen by chance - it is a symbolic designation of Down syndrome itself, the cause of which is trisomy of one of the chromosomes: in a person suffering from this disease, the 21st chromosome is in three copies. Translated into “calendar language”, it turned out the 21st day of the third month.
