On May 1, the "Maralnik Blossoming" festival was held at Turquoise Katun, traditionally marking the start of the summer tourist season in the region, attracting thousands of visitors to Altai.
The festival is a vibrant event closely linked to Altai Krai and the Altai Republic. At this large-scale celebration, Altai State University was proudly represented by its performance groups.
The theatrical workshop "Homo Artisticus" performed at the "Element of Creativity" site, becoming a major attraction for the audience. In the scenic Roerich Park, the team presented an extensive theatrical program featuring poems by renowned local poets dedicated to Altai, the Katun River, nature, and the power of inspiration.
A special event at the venue was the premiere of a literary composition based on the Altai folk tale "Dil-Kel." This heartfelt performance, rich with vivid imagery of the native land, deep folklore, and vibrant emotional expression, captivated the audience. The spectators listened attentively, responded enthusiastically, and applauded the artists warmly at the end.
The vocal group Yuna played a significant role in enriching the festival's creative atmosphere. Their remarkable vocal talents united the audience, fostering a shared appreciation for the art and traditions of Altai.
"Maralnik is not only the opening of the tourist season but also marks the beginning of a season filled with emotions and hard work for students. We are always delighted to participate in such a vibrant event! The breathtaking beauty of Altai both attracts and inspires," shared Vasya Perevoshchikov, the lead singer of the vocal group Yuna.
The ENERGY modern dance studio at the "Element of Creativity" venue united hearts around the themes of patriotism and love for the Motherland.
