Reviews
The Erzyanskoy Kultury Museum celebrates its modest anniversary on November 20. It was created through the energy and dedicated work of Anoshoñ Tumay (Anoshkin Nikolay Ivanovich) and his volunteers and friends.

The museum's existence continues to go unnoticed by the officials of AFUN under Mr. M. Mosin and the Consultative Committee of Finno-Ugric Peoples under Mr. V. Markov, who are busy organizing large-scale festivals. Perhaps the anniversary will prompt them to take notice? Perhaps this event in the contemporary life of the Erzya people will lead the heads of these organizations to at least congratulate the museum's founders on the anniversary and thank them for their dedicated work. |
