On November 21, at the Krasnoyarsk Center for Creative Development and Humanitarian Education, employees of the Siberian Federal University Publishing House and the Department of Information Technologies in Creative and Cultural Industries of the SFU Humanitarian Institute held a master class “How to invent and write your own story.”

The event took place within regional project “Care and fun of little Yeniseis. New history.”

The topic of traditions of the Yenisei province has already been described within the framework of two grant projects from the Siberian Federal University publishing house and the Association of Digital Humanities. This is the book “Cares and Fun of Little Yenisei Residents” and the cartoon “Yenisei Stories”. Now the idea has been continued in the regional educational project about the culture and history of the Yenisei province “Cares and fun of little Yeniseis. New history.” The project is being implemented by the SibFU Publishing House together with the Center for Creative Development and Humanitarian Education in the central region of Krasnoyarsk.

The organizers plan to continue the theme in the form of educational work in the field of artistic, applied and literary creativity of children and teachers of additional education institutions.

The first master class “How to come up with and write your own story” was held on November 21 at the Center for Creative Development and Humanitarian Education. The meeting with additional education teachers was held by Maria Romanyuk, author of the book “The Cares and Fun of Little Yeniseis”, senior lecturer at the Department of Information Technologies in Creative and Cultural Industries of the Humanitarian Institute and public relations specialist at SFU Publishing House Ekaterina Malakhovskaya.

Maria Romanyuk told in detail how to write your own story, create a living character, how a good fairy tale differs from just a funny one, where ideas for stories come from, why they help children understand the world and themselves. The teachers became participants in the educational game, followed the path of the author and wrote their own magical story.

At the invitation of the Siberian Federal University publishing house, the partners of the project were cultural institutions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory: the Museum-Estate of V. I. Surikov, the newspaper “Children's District”, the Center for Cultural Initiatives, the children's library named after A.
