Due to all known health restrictions, we canceled our main event, but on September 20 we organized a March through Trubar's birth parish. As the Celebration of spring was also canceled, we invited members of Likovniki Ljubljana (painters) and local artists to the autumn painting colony, which, although in smaller numbers, gladly attended.

On the 20th of June, our association again organized the Evening in the Village, which was attended by more than 50 participants, about half of the members of the association, and half of the villagers from the surrounding areas. Everyone was immensely impressed with the program and the atmosphere.

In keeping with the measures and quarantine due to the well-known epidemic, our traditional event Celebration of spring, unfortunately, is canceled.

On Sunday, March 8, 2020, members of our Association celebrated Women's Day and Martyrs Day.

On Saturday, 28th February an annual general meeting of our association was held and was attended by approximately half the of members.

Under the auspices of the Tourist Association of Slovenia, our association again presented itself at the Alpe-Adria (Alps-Adria) fair, which was held at the exhibition center Gospodarsko razstavišče Ljubljana from 29th January to 1st February.

This year, we counted 345 cribs, and maybe even more than last year, because they have been added since the opening of the exhibition, December 15 ... otherwise our intention is not to set records every year. More than 4,000 visitors have seen the exhibition by January 2, although the guided tour was canceled on December 22 due to heavy rain. Therefore, Santa Claus visited the youngest only on December 29 and took them enthusiastically with a special bus. 

On 15 December, the President of our Association for preserving heritage, Lojze Senčar, opened the 12th exhibition of nativity scene in the hidden places of Gradež. Mayor of Velike Lašče, dr. Tadej Malovrh, welcomed about 200 visitors and wished them a nice evening, happy holidays and a happy New Year. The exhibition will be on view until January 2nd, 2020.

On Sunday, September 15, 2019, our association again proved to be a successful organization of the Dry Fruit Festival and the Hike by Trubar`s birth parish. Only 50 hikers took part in the morning trails, but more than 2.000 people visited Gradež, who spent an unforgettable afternoon. Occasionally, all the tables were occupied and more parking was needed.
