#ARCTIC. #SIBERIA. THIS IS TAIMYR. The new award – Culture Supporters – will be awarded annually in Norilsk to teachers who carry out extensive educational work among students, including visiting museum events in the educational process.
“We want to distinguish those Norilsk teachers who have shown themselves to be the most active popularizers of the all-Russian project Pushkin Card, and we are launching a new competition mechanism for this. Going to museums, understanding complex things – this is difficult, this is real intellectual work. And this is what the Pushkin Card is primarily focused on. At the same time, a lot in the habit of the younger generation to complex cultural consumption depends on the teacher who is interested in culture and art and leads the pupils, schoolchildren and students. This is what we understand as a true mentor, a cultural supporter and a laureate of the Norilsk prize of the same name”, said Natalya Fedyanina, the Norilsk museum’s director.
The annual prize was established by the Norilsk museum together with the city administration’s Culture and Arts department and the General and Preschool Education department. The laureates will be determined based on the results of visits to museum sites during the academic year, and the results will be summarized in the fall.
By the way, according to the results of the Pushkin Card program implementation in the Krasnoyarsk region in the first half of 2024, the Norilsk Museum took second place among all museums in the region.
The organizing committee has already counted the schoolchildren groups, technical school students and the Polar State University (PSU) visits in the past academic year and identified the first laureates of the new prize. These are 24 Norilsk teachers, most of them are Talnah schools’ representatives.
The names of the heroes – supporters of culture will be announced at a ceremony to be held on November 12, 2024, in Norilsk museum.
Earlier, the Arts Night’s results were summed up at the Norilsk museum.
