KAPAN, June 30. /ARKA/. The RA Government will provide 20mln AMD
support to the students of music schools in the Syunik region, Armenia,
RA Minister of Culture Hasmik Poghosyan reported at the RA Government’s
meeting in Kapan.

"Last year, 144 students received 11mln AMD financial aid, and this
amount will reach 20mln AMD this year," Poghosyan said.

The Minister said that the primary task is to provide regional music
schools with musical instruments.

"We also consider it necessary to open a branch of Yerevan State
Conservatoire in the region," Poghosyan said.

Speaking of the problem of companies for Kapan and Goris theaters,
Minister Poghosyan pointed out that the problem has not yet been
resolved despite the fact that Kapan State College of Art and the
Syunik branch of the Academy of Cinema and Art are working in the
region. She reported that two stage directors from Yerevan will soon
come to the region to deal with the problem.

"The theater building in Kapan has been renovated this year, and
could hold the Armmono theater festival here," the Minister said.

Poghosyan said that the Goris theater is not in a good state now. The
theater was involved in the renovation program launched by the RA
Ministry of Urban Development, but the program was suspended.

Poghosyan also expressed the confidence that the renovation of the
building will be completed under the development program in the Syunik
region in 2010-2013.
