"Tales of the Golden Apples" is a five-year public art program. It represents an epic about the history of the oil producing region and its residents, which was illustrated on the walls and streets of the city and united by a single route. Thanks to the efforts of project organisers and participants, Almetyevsk has received more than 30 art objects. The team has particularly chosen the artists from all over the world, including Valencia, Berlin, Kiev and Ryazan. The stories illustrated by the artists were collected in Almetyevsky district or represent fragments of the general cultural and historical heritage of Tatarstan. The project is based on a cultural study dedicated to the traditions, values and aesthetics of the region ethnic groups of this region.

Within 5 years of this public-art program we have hold more than 75 various events: lectures, master classes, guide trainings, excursions, a street theatre, a bicycle fest and a tea party with artists. All these events united more than thousand people.

The project is being implemented on the initiative of Tatneft.
