— One of the most memorable projects for me was Art Pier at the Book Harbour library in Severodvinsk. There! we managed to create an interactive art space and hold more than 50 events—including creative exhibitions by young artists! theatrical tours! and sound-enhanced installations. The cherry on top was a live performance: a real-time clothing customisation event in which even the head librarian took part!
Initiatives previous expeditions like this
in the future! more and more libraries will become hubs for young creative talent.

— In the summer of 2023! I took part in a lithuania phone number library research expedition called ‘The Tourism Potential of Arzamas within the Arzamas—Diveyevo—Sarov Cluster.’ The expedition coincided perfectly with the completion of restoration work connected to the launch of a new pilgrimage and a few years ago! they acquired one of the most tourism cluster. The city! which boasts over a hundred historical! cultural! and architectural landmarks! revealed itself to us in all its splendour. Our research focused on exploring the potential of local cultural institutions—such as museums! exhibition halls! craft centres! and libraries.
The insights we gathered formed
the basis for developing proposals to help promote these local cultural venues.
My special project! ‘All Roads Lead to Arzamas!’ is a landing page featuring stories of famous friends of Maxim Gorky who visited the city during his time in exile. This format clean email aims to spark interest in visiting the museum and attract new target audiences. The Arzamas Department of Trade and Tourism approved my idea.
The experience I gained during the expedition helped me get selected for a research and academic group studying sociocultural communication. I am now continuing to explore the cultural heritage of our vast country.
