In Ungheni, graduates take the stage in a district its young people are leaving

The Graduates' Ball returns to Ungheni on 18 June 2026, in Independence Square — a ceremony for the young people finishing high school, organised by the city hall together with the district council and the Education Directorate. Last year, the stage in the town centre gathered the graduates of all eight high schools in the district. Beyond the music and the diplomas, the event carries a stake the numbers state bluntly: Ungheni is losing its young people — for every class that climbs the stage, another has already left.

80 young people graduated from Ungheni's art school, named after Raisa Cojocaru

The Art School in Ungheni held its 2026 graduation: 80 children and teenagers (74 from the fourth-year classes and 6 from the fifth year) finished their years of drawing, painting and sculpture, according to the City Hall. The school bears the name of Raisa Cojocaru, who led it for almost four decades, and has a tradition of over 57 years. And the stakes are higher than a ceremony: in a district that has lost more than half of its young people in twelve years, every generation trained at home counts.

At the Palace of Culture in Ungheni, young people discover rare crafts — origami, quilling and the art of pressed flowers

A creative workshop at the Palace of Culture gathered young people in Ungheni around four techniques with surprising stories: the Japanese folding of paper, the paper filigree once rolled on goose quills, the «painting» from pressed flowers once practised by samurai, and découpage. Beyond a pleasant afternoon, the workshop says something about what the town still offers its young people — in a district they are leaving.
