Pictures in the slideshow were taken and published by Oromo Press with the permission of the American Swedish Institute on the opening day of the joint Oromo-Swedish cultural exhibition. The exhibition is scheduled to run from July 6 to August 25, 2013. If you live in Minneapolis or Saint Paul, we encourage you to go to the exhibition and appreciate the extraordinary talent the Oromo youth have invested in the success of this project. The exhibition highlights centuries-old connection between the Oromo and the Swedish peoples. The main aim of the Oromo part of the cultural exhibition is to raise awareness about the Oromo people and Oromia. Enjoy the slideshow if you are in Oromia or elsewhere in the diaspora far from this event.
