Sunscape Festival aims to increase public awareness of the Sun and our solar system, the Milky Way in an artistic and accessible language, developing a sense of community and civic spirit.

The sun and environmental protection are the themes of Șevaletul Anei and Alexei Luca's murals at Giarmata which will run from September 5 through September 20, 2024.

On September 20, 2024, the public looking for new experiences is invited to explore the Sun through a telescope with a special filter at the Banat Village Museum in Timișoara.

On September 21, 2024, in Giarmata, the public is invited to experience the Sun through a telescope, painting, pottery, calligraphy workshops, first aid measures, supported by volunteers from the Timis Red Cross Society, along with lectures on the Sun and the solar system and light pollution.
