A traditional crafts and folklore fair held each year on Ascension Day, showcasing pottery and other folk arts from the Oltăţului valley 1. The festival includes open-air workshops, music from regional ensembles, and a celebration of ancestral crafts tied to the symbolic "Tree of Life." Visitors see live pottery demonstrations and family art displays.
Rooted in village crafts traditions, the festival revives old crafts in a communal celebration. It is held when locals traditionally carried a decorated 'Tree of Life' branch in religious processions. The event fosters continuity of ceramic and weaving arts among Olt Oltenia families.
