The five-day exhibition entitled "Bancher" opened on 11.5.2026. at 17.00 in the exhibition space of the Tuzla Youth Center. A documentary exhibition that follows the life path of Leonard Banker, from the arrival of his family from Italy to Tuzla, through his labor and revolutionary engagement, to his prison days and death in 1936. The aim of the exhibition is to foster a culture of remembrance of Leonard Banker, a presentation of his revolutionary path, a connection with the Tuzla residents who were leaders of the labor and revolutionary movement in Tuzla and the region, and a reminder of the sacrifice that Banker made for the economic and social well-being of all workers.<\/p>

The exhibition, on 9 panels, includes 29 photographs and 31 documents that are important for presenting the life path of Leonardo Banker. A smaller part of the exhibition exhibits refers to his family, and the special feature of the exhibition is the complete police file of Banker, which was kept by the Italian Ministry of the Interior in the 1930s. The file was scanned thanks to the Archivio di Stato di Trento (Archive of the Province of Trento) and the association Trentini nel mondo, Trento. The \u201eDervi\u0161 Su\u0161i\u0107\u201c Library in Tuzla provided a transcript of the bulletin \u201eFabrika i njiva\u201c edited by Banker (issue no. 3 from 1931). Parts of the bulletin are also displayed at the exhibition.<\/p>

The host of the exhibition, Senad Begovi\u0107, greeted the attendees, and the author of the exhibition, Tihomir Kne\u017ei\u010dek, spoke about the content of the exhibition. Zoran Banker - Leonard Banker's grandson - also addressed those present. Although Zoran does not live in Tuzla, he emphasizes that his family still sees this city as their home. At the opening of the exhibition he said: "I, although I don't live in Tuzla, my father Rinaldo Banker, Leonard's son, was born here. So, we feel like Tuzlans, and believe me, I am now a Tuzlan among you. We feel very proud because this city still remembers Bankerova Street, even though it is called differently. Well, on behalf of the family, I am grateful to the Tuzlans, inexpressibly, even though I said, and unprintable". The exhibition was visited, and the media of RTV TK and RTV 7 were present. The exhibition was closed on May 15, 2026. According to the estimates of the Cultural Center, the exhibition was visited by about 100 citizens in five days.<\/p>
