    Renovation underway at Parakar Art School

    The 180 students of Paraqar art school after Hovik Edgaryan will start the
    academic year in improved conditions.
    The one-storey building of the school which is now being reconstructed was
    damaged as a result of 1988 earthquake and lost seismic stability.
    Through funds allocated by the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund French affiliate
    reconstruction at the art school started in February 2007. As part of the
    project the roof of the building was reconstructed, its walls reinforced,
    the floor and the inner water pipe-lines were renovated, new doors and
    windows were installed. At present interior refurbishment works are being
    carried out at the art school.
    Almast Svajian, principal of the school, mentioned that thanks to the
    Hayastan All-Armenian Fund the art school will also have a concert-hall. `At
    last the children will have the opportunity to appear on stage and give
    concerts in a comfortable concert-hall' says the principal.
    Specialized painting, ceramics, brass band and other art classes will have
    their separate classrooms. Additionally national applied art circles like
    carpet-making, tapestry and etc will also be established. Ms. Almast Svajian
    is sure that the safety and the enhanced conditions of the school will
    generate additional interest towards the art school and will inspire its
    teachers and students.
