On Valentine's Day, a special event is being held at the museums dedicated to the famous Latvian poets Renārs (Raņs) and Aspazija in Riga and Jūrmala. The event invites visitors to explore the poets' intimate spaces, experiencing the atmosphere of their home while sipping tea by their table. This occasion aims to connect visitors with the personal lives and passions of these influential figures in Latvian literature.

Specialist Astra Kacena is leading guided tours showcasing areas of the museum typically closed to the public, such as the poets' apartments.

This Valentine's Day event at the museums not only celebrates love in its many forms but also invites individuals to reflect on the impact of Raņs and Aspazija's relationship on Latvian culture. The evening offers a rare chance to engage with the personal histories of these legends and appreciate the tangible connections that fueled their creativity, solidifying their legacies in the hearts of many.
