On April 9th, the citywide festival of student art, Student Spring of Chelyabinsk 2019, will begin. The festival is held as part of the Russian Student Spring Program for Supporting and Developing Student Art and is the city round of the Russian Student Spring All-Russian Festival.
The festival was founded by the Chelyabinsk Regional Social Organisation of the Russian Social Organisation Russian Union of Youth, and the Department for Youth Affairs of the Chelyabinsk City Administration.
This year, the festival will be held in a slightly different format. Where before, the main round of participation for university students was the contests: music, dance, theatre, and the original genre; now, each academic institution is preparing a 40- to 90-minute contest program. This is sort of a theatre performance and concert in one, with the participation of artistic groups, solo artists, and masters of ceremony with stage direction and other theatrical attributes.
The program which earns the highest award will represent our region at the 27th Russian Student Spring All-Russian Festival, which will be held in Perm in May of 2019.
The SUSU Recreation Centre has prepared an interesting program called Island of Faith (Ostrov Very) with an exciting and intriguing story, and with the participation of the university’s leading artistic groups, who are hoping for the strong support of the audience.
You are welcome to come and see the SUSU’s festival program at the World Trade Centre (35 Lenina Prospect) on April 10th at 13:00.
