    "The Armenian Culture Days in Belarus passed very successfully. Our
    culture was highly appreciated there not only by the Armenian
    community, but by the local population," Culture Minister Hasmik
    Poghosyan, who led the Armenian delegation to Belarus, said today at
    a press conference.

    Thanks to a program consisting of many genres, Armenian culture was
    well represented. The program consisted not only of state-sponsored
    groups, but others not sponsored by the state. "Groups from Armenia
    combined with local Armenian ensembles, such as the 'Erebuni' dance
    ensemble," Poghosyan noted.

    According to Ara Yernjagyan, all ensembles were of high quality,
    and the reception in Belarus was warm and open. Armenian art was
    presented by the Yerevan Chamber Theater, with 'Cabaret,' the Komitas
    Conservatory Youth Symphony, and the Shoghaken Folk Ensemble. An
    exhibition in the Belarus History and Culture Theatre featured
    photographs of works by Sergey Paradjanov.

    In the Minsk Culture and Art University, a cultural dialogue took
    place, at which books were gifted to the Khnko Apor library in
    Yerevan. In the "Raketa" theater, the "I died when I was a child"
    film by Paradjanov was shown.

    During the course of events, culture minister Hasmik Poghosyan met with
    her Belarus counterpart, Vladimir Matvejugi, Armenia's ambassador to
    Belarus, Oleg Yessayan, and other community representatives. We note
    that the Armenian culture days lasted from October 22-28. Armenian
    culture was presented in several cities, including Minsk, Brest,
    Bobryusk, and Molodendino.
