The Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Science and Education, and the Heydar Aliyev Center will jointly organize the First Children's Art Festival to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Azerbaijani national leader Heydar Aliyev.

Fostering development in the sphere of culture, and educating children in the spirit of patriotism, culture, art, and traditions is the main objective of the festival, inspired by the national leader Heydar Aliyev's devotion to the promotion of culture and youth.

The festival is open to groups, associations, solo artists, dancers, artistic reciters, musicians, artists, and talented individuals engaged in decorative and applied arts. Registration will be open on the www.uif.az website from February 20 to March 30.
