The organized exhibitions were attended by directors, teachers, and students from the Quba, Qusar, and Khachmaz Children’s Art and Music Schools, as well as employees of the Quba District Centralized Library System. The participants familiarized themselves with the photo exhibition titled “Our Cultural Heritage: Yesterday and Today – Karabakh Monuments,” prepared by the Genocide Memorial Complex. At the opening of the exhibition, Abutalib Turabov, an employee of the Complex, spoke about its activities and emphasized that the exhibition plays an important role in educating the youth on the restoration and preservation of our cultural heritage. Experts from the Complex — Ülkər Zeynalova, Zərifə Ağarzayeva, and Səriyyə Abidova — spoke about the study, protection, and restoration of historical monuments in our country, the promotion of cultural samples internationally, and the conservation and reconstruction work being carried out at hundreds of historical and cultural monuments throughout the country, thanks to the attention and care of President Ilham Aliyev. They noted that restoration and construction works in Karabakh and the liberated territories are carried out systematically and with planned projects. The restoration of monuments damaged during the occupation is not merely a construction process. It also represents the restoration of our nation’s identity and the reacquisition of lost values. Every monument, every stone, is a memory. Restoring these monuments teaches us not to forget our past and helps us build a stronger and more resilient future.
At the end, a discussion was held addressing questions from the exhibition participants. It should be noted that more than 100 people were educated at the exhibition held in Quba city, organized by the initiative of the Genocide Memorial Complex and supported by the Quba-Khachmaz Regional Culture Department.
