The Art Fest Asia festival included not only competitive performances but also professional exchange. Leaders of creative groups met to discuss the development of performing arts. On behalf of the school, Vice Principal of Student Affairs Elvira Aydinaliyeva delivered a presentation entitled “Dance Art as a Means of Value Education in an Intellectual School” and spoke about the activities of the “Ғажайып” ensemble.
