/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia in Tobolsk exhibit, which marked the 90-th
anniversary of the Armenian Genocide and 1600-th anniversary of
creation of the Armenian written language, has opened in Tobolsk,
Russia. The exhibition, supported by Tobolsk reserve-museum, is
organized by Chairman of Tobolsk Youth Parliament Hakob Asloyan.
Books, Armenian souvenirs, national instruments and other materials
of the history and culture of the Armenian people are presented at
the exhibition. As City Mayor Yevgeny Vorobyov noted at the official
opening, it is important that living in far Siberia Armenians do not
forget their history and culture. Tobolsk reserve-museum Director
Yevgeny Akulich emphasized that the expo is significant to the museum
first of all for Armenians being first of the former USSR peoples to
acquaint Tobolsk residents with their culture. Yevgeny Akulich has
lived and worked in the Armenian city of Leninakan (now Gyumri) for
three years after the earthquake of 1988. He knows well this sunny
country. In Hakob Asloyan's words, the absence of a juridical
registration of the Armenian community in Tobolsk does not hamper
Armenians organizing events and participating in the social life of
the city.
