An open inclusive festival of ethnic and traditional arts, “The World of Nomads Is the World!”, will take place at 2 p.m. on October 25 at the L.R. Kyzlasov Khakass National Museum of Local Lore. It will bring families together through creativity, ethnic culture and personal stories, including families raising people with disabilities.
The festival will conclude a project to create an open inclusive space for ethnic and traditional arts. The project is run by the Special Perspective Inclusive Projects Center with a grant from the Russian Cultural Foundation, as part of the federal project “Family Values and Cultural Infrastructure” under the national “Family” project.
The main event will be “Through the Ages to Equal Opportunities,” a theatrical performance involving people with disabilities. The program will also feature the “Stories of Personal Victories” fashion show, where project participants will appear in stylized outfits with ethnic elements and share stories of creativity, overcoming challenges and achievement. An exhibition of their work will open as well.
