The paper deals with the development of the folklore festival Hontianska paráda. The festival has been held in the village of Hrušov since 1996. Several important personalities of folklorism took part in its formation. Since the first year of the festival, however, it has been possible to trace the considerable involvement of local actors, not only in terms of the organisation but also in terms of the programming of the event. The folklore festival has built on the preserved cultural heritage in the village and, together with the previous professional attention of ethnologists, folklorists, and others, has contributed to the awareness of the value of the preserved cultural heritage among the people of Hrušov themselves. The article presents the development of the festival's dramaturgy, and its actors, outlines the festival's connection with the village and the region, and maps the festival's role in the development of cultural tourism. The article presents the subjective view of the author, who had the opportunity to participate in the preparation and implementation of the festival from the time of her university studies to the present day. Since her university studies, she has also been closely connected with the village of Hrušov and several of its families through a friendship relationship.73 – 81

This study is based on an analysis of local economic, environmental, social and cultural activities in the municipalities which were awarded the “Village of the Year” title, with a special focus on the Hrušov hillsides and the settlements in Oravská Lesná. The basic historical and ethnological features of these villages include dispersion of the population, since the development period until the establishment of collective farms was characterised mainly by self-employed farmers. In both cases, it happened with a delay – in the 1970s and the 1980s. Ever since, the hillsides and settlements have become depopulated, mainly as a result of the growing construction of family houses or municipal (cooperative) flats in the central parts of municipalities. Inspired by the theoretical and methodological framework of the authors who have dealt with the transformation of hillsides/settlements (Priečko, 2003, 2015; Huba, 1989, 1990, 2009), four possible development processes influencing the hillsides/settlements over the past decades can be hypothetically assumed: 1. Strengthening the original residential and economic function through a set of incentives. 2. Complete functional transformation of the sites from residential to recreational areas. 3. Exclusion of the sites from the category of built-up areas and delimitation of agricultural land to forest land category; 4. Combination of two and more functions with a view to a rational use of the landscape potential and preservation of the genius loci, which, however, requires the ability and willingness of the original or new users to respect the natural and cultural values of places of habitation and of the country, traditional agro-technical processes as well as landscaping in connection with the local/regional cultural heritage.

The study is based on the APVV project that focused on the socio-cultural capital of successful Slovak municipalities, bearers of the “Village of the Year” title, which can serve as a source of inspiration for other municipalities in improving the quality of life in the countryside. The aim of this study is to highlight the possibilities for the development of local communities in the context of geographical and economic determining factors and to observe the use of the socio-cultural capital as a source of sustainable growth also in the context of cultural and local identity. The study analyses two concrete examples aimed to increase the attractiveness of the sites through the presentation of their socio-cultural potential. The first case covers the municipality of Hrušov and its participation in the Hont Eco-Museum project, implemented within the wider micro-region. In the second case, we explore the municipality of Spišský Hrhov and its analogical example – the museum of music Muzik Muzeum. The study was based mainly on the results of the pilot research and subsequent ethnological field research in both municipalities, conducted predominantly by means of direct interviews with the locals, newcomers as well as leaders of the municipalities in 2018. The synthesis of the conclusions is based on a comparison of some determining factors of the development of both sites (the proximity and accessibility of urban centres, economic or confessional aspects in relation to the local community).

This study focuses on forms of museological presentation for the mediation of natural, cultural, historic and social values, with specific reference to ecomuseums and educational public footpaths. The object of the study is to characterise these forms and on the basis of real examples, in order to highlight opportunities in the field of museological communication that lead away from the traditional interpretation of forms focused on the object, towards contemporary flexible modes of communication directed towards the experience within its context. It also explores the utilisation of such approaches for the development and promotion of the locality and its attractions. The subjects of the research are the ecomuseum and educational public footpath in the village of Hrušov. These features are identified with the locality and accentuate specific aspects of its cultural heritage, presenting them to visitors. The study is the result of ethnological research undertaken periodically since 2017 and it represents an introductory probe into the chosen area.
