A photograph of Lake Cerknica with golden reeds in the foreground; in the middle, we can see the lake’s “windows,” and vibrant green grass in the background. The sky is dark due to the rain. We can also see a rainbow. In the upper part of the photo, on the left side, are the logos of the LIFE TRŠCA project, the Jože Udovič Library in Cerknica, and the Fran Gerbič Music School in Cerknica; on the right side of the photo are the logos of Nature 2000 and LIFE.

Lake Cerknica is not only an intermittent natural wonder, but also a place of constant transformation, stories, and inspiration. Its appearance changes with the seasons and the rhythm of the water — from a vast open lake to mysterious wetlands, meadows, sinkholes, and hidden corners of wild nature.

You are warmly invited to the photography exhibition “Images of Lake Cerknica: Where water tells stories”, which reveals the diversity, beauty, and unique dynamics of this remarkable karst landscape through the lenses of local photographers. The exhibition highlights the importance of preserving this extraordinary natural heritage while showing how closely human life is intertwined with the rhythms of the lake.

 

We kindly invite you to the opening of the exhibition on Friday, June 5, 2026, at 19:00 at the Jože Udovič Library in Cerknica. The program will be enriched by students of the Fran Gerbič Music School Cerknica, while guests will also enjoy local delicacies prepared by the Notranjska Okuševalnica.

The exhibition features works by local photographers:

  • Ivan Kebe,
  • Veljko Klarić,
  • Erik Premrov,
  • Dajana Radić,
  • Miran Špeh,
  • Tine Šubic,
  • Zoran Vidrih,
  • Sebastjan Zelič, and
  • Blaž Žnidaršič.

 

After the opening, the exhibition will also travel to other branches of the Jože Udovič Library:

  • Rakek – Ivan Matičič Branch: from July 3 to July 31
  • Stari trg pri Ložu – Marička Žnidaršič Branch: from August 3 to August 31
  • Nova vas – Ivan Čamp Branch: from September 1 to September 30

     

Join us and discover just how beautiful, diverse, and extraordinary our intermittent Lake Cerknica is—a place where water is constantly writing new stories.

LIFE TRŠCA

With LIFE TRŠCA we will improve the conservation status of the intermittent Lake Cerknica.
