Nikolai Gorban, CPC General Director, and Igor
Babushkin, Astrakhan Oblast Governor, affixed the plaque.
The standard construction period for a facility
of this type is about 1.5 years. As per the design, the Cultural &
Aesthetic Center is a two-story building. Inside the building with an area of more
than 1.7 thousand sq. m will be divided into several functional groups, where
rooms for group and individual creative classes and administrative offices will
be located. In addition, the Center's auditorium will be able to accommodate
100 spectators.
Putting the Center into operation will allow not
only to create comfortable conditions for additional education of children and
youth, but also to attract young teachers by opening new areas of training.
The cost of the construction paid out of CPC
charity funds will amount to 196 million rubles.
The history of cooperation between the Consortium
and Astrakhan Oblast Administration goes back more than two decades. In early
2023, CPC supplied the latest CT scanner worth almost 60 million rubles to
Alexandro-Mariinsky Oblast clinical hospital. The material base of the
Astrakhan Regional Social Rehabilitation Center "Rus" was
strengthened with modern equipment to the amount of about 20 million rubles.
