Minister of Education and Culture Janet Simmons announces Cultural Exposition

Her Imperial Majesty's Minister of Education and Culture, Janet Simmons, announced a Kalistani Cultural Exposition to be held in Eveari in January. "It is Her Imperial Majesty's desire to show off the wealth and affluence of Kalistan off to the World," said Minister Simmons. "The Cultural Exposition will feature Kalistani Music, Art and a display of Kalistani treasures, including the Kundrati Diamond, which was first given to Empress Pavlina I Ananto by her family in Kundrati before 5578 and it is said to have originated in Beiteynu. It, along with a half dozen imperial crowns, numerous necklaces, broaches, sets of earings, bracelets, gauntlets, and other decoration, as well as The Empress' Diamond studded Coronation Dress will be on display during the exposition."

The exposition will run from January 15-31, 5643, in Eveari, across several venues and will be open to the public. "We are officially inviting dignitaries and reps from all friendly nations to Eveari during this time," said Simmons, "but most of those we expect to show up will probably be the People of Kalistan, who themselves are Kalistani Culture's biggest fans." She said most people will attend for the music, but expects a large crowd who will be there specifically to look at the Crown Jewels Collection, which will be hosted at Ananto Estate.

"Obviously we can't display the entire collection, which would be far too large and uncatalogued to display," said the Minister. "These are simply the most interesting and valuable pieces. We want to show off Her Imperial Majesty's best items." Besides the imperial art collection also on display, Minister Simmons also said there would be a nightly concert featuring musicians from all across the nation. "We're expecting Wanderlust to play a set, and Carrie Hill will be here on the last evening. We specifically booked her given Her Imperial Majesty's affinity for the singer. These should be phenomenal concerts." Most shows will be held at various local bars and clubs across Eveari.

"We look forward to many of Kalistan's elites from the art, fashion, business and finance community to be in attendance at different points during the Exposition," said Minister Simmons. "It should be an awesome event."
