Consul for Public Affairs Dr. Elizabeth Bonkowsky represented the Consulate at the Sorb folk group festival at Crostwitz, near Bautzen. She was welcomed at every turn including a luncheon - attended also by Saxon state ministers and representatives - a festival parade and the afternoon program of folk music and dancing. The Sorbs, a Slavic minority group, live in a small town and rural area of Saxony and south Brandenburg.
