Mayor of Kutaisi Ioseb Khakhaleishvili participated in the international online conference "New Reality - Museums and Pandemic"
"The pandemic also put museums in difficult situation and I am glad that the Kutaisi State Historical Museum was able to hold this interesting online conference. I was introduced to the working program of the conference, which is distinguished by the diversity of participants and communities, starting from the ancient Colchian culture. It will undoubtedly be interesting to hear each of them. It is also important that the field of archeology and history is fully dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the birth of Academician Otar Lortkipanidze. Mr. Otar made great contribution to the study and popularization of Colchian culture, of which integral part is Kutaisi.
Together with our museum, I would also like to thank the Georgian Museum Association, its Executive Director, Ms. Inga (Clara) Karaia, for supporting the conference.
I wish you successful work, interesting reports and active discussions! I hope we will meet again in museums soon! "- Ioseb Khakhaleishvili addressed to the conference’s participants.
The video conference will last for two days. Famous Georgian and foreign scientists are taking part in it.
