Creative school for gifted children and youth in Astrakhan

In November, the autumn stage of the International Cultural and Educational Project "Creative School for Gifted Children and Youth" was held in Astrakhan, where 40 young artists, students of children's art schools and art departments of children's art schools of the Astrakhan Region, were trained.
The project was established by the Ministry of Culture of the Astrakhan Region and is being implemented within the framework of the national project "Culture".

"The Creative School provides students with the opportunity to reveal their potential, develop professional skills and find their place in the world of art. I hope that it will become a source of inspiration for all participants and help them reach new heights in creative activity," shared Anna Kozlovtseva, Director of the Educational and Methodological Center.

Classes in one of the groups of artists were conducted by Anna Filipovskaya - a teacher at the S.M. Kirov Saint Petersburg State Forest Technical University, a teacher at the Children's Art School No. 1 of Saint Petersburg, a member of the Union of Watercolorists of Russia. Under her guidance, the participants immersed themselves in the exciting world of watercolor painting. She paid special attention to helping the participants develop their individual style and expressiveness on canvas, which resulted in bright, interesting works.

"The participants are all different, amazing. And I tried to create a comfortable atmosphere so that the children would work with pleasure. Seeing how they open up, how they get excitement and fire in their eyes is the greatest gift for me," Anna Konstantinovna shared.

The autumn stage of the Creative School for the participants of the Fine Arts specialty will result in an exhibition.
