Task
The goal was revival of the cultural center in the Karelian village. The project is significant for the region. A lot of work is planned to develop this place as a center of culture and research base for students of philology. And also it should become a place of attraction for people who are not indifferent to Russian culture, Karelia and just travelers! This is the beginning of the revival of the place and memory of the great folk storyteller.

The House of Culture, which combined the functions of a club, a library and a museum in Cuzaranda, was long ago, but now, in the renovated building, it is planned to create a research base for students of philology. We hope that life will boil, people will come to these picturesque places — Kuzaranda (Spruce Coast) to get acquainted with the work of this great woman
