Nine regions will gather in Karelia for the festival “Finno-Ugric transit”

In early November, from the 1st to the 4th, the Republic of Karelia will meet participants of the anniversary creative project “Finno-Ugric Transit”. According to the portal “Mezhnats.RF”, the event will bring together artists from nine subjects of the country.

For more than 17 years, this international art festival has been successfully fulfilling the mission of promoting and protecting the cultural heritage of Finno-Ugric ethnic groups, strengthening interregional cooperation. The format of the project assumes a kind of relay: the right to conduct passes from one region to another.

This season, the start was given in Yoshkar-Ola (October 23-26), where representatives of Mari El, Komi, Udmurtia, Perm Territory, as well as guests from the DPR and Belarus performed on the stage of the E. Sapayev Theater. In the Karelian stage of the program, creative teams from the Leningrad region, Mordovia, Crimea and the LPR will be added to them.

The main goal of Transit remains unchanged – a careful attitude to the traditions of the Finno-Ugric peoples and the formation of a common cultural and information field within Russia.
