Books that teach us to dream: "Library of the Future" hall at the National Centre
The exposition "Legacy for the Future" at the
National Centre RUSSIA consists of three chapters. The first chapter highlights
the continuity of traditions in innovation — from the ideas of visionaries and
science fiction writers from around the world to the achievements of inventors.
Its primary goal is to inspire visitors and foster a desire for invention and
science fiction.
This chapter features two halls. The first, "Library of
the Future," is dedicated to books that teach us to dream and imagine from
early childhood.
On its virtual bookshelves there are works that helped
people dream in the distant past but remain relevant today.
Visitors of all ages fondly recall imagining life on the
Moon with Neznaika and his friends, relive the adventures of Kolya Naumov and
Alisa Seleznyova, and picture the time machine and mind-reading device — the
myelophone — which are still a dream for us.
Young visitors to the "Library of the Future"
learn more about the bold innovators and masters of imagination of different
eras, who passionately explored the realms of the future and created
fantastical worlds beyond the boundaries of everyday reality.
The National Centre RUSSIA was established by order of the
President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, to preserve the legacy of
the International RUSSIA EXPO and to showcase the achievements of the country
and its citizens on a permanent basis. Federal government agencies, state
companies, corporations, and regions take part in the Centre’s work.
The lecture "Come and See: The Feat of Newsreel Cameramen during the Great Patriotic War" took place as part of the "Thursday. Development".
The centre has become the first, unique, and multifunctional exhibition venue in Belarus, operated by the National Exhibition Centre "BelExpo."
On May 8, the audience at the National Centre RUSSIA enjoyed a performance by a combined children's wind orchestra, which launched the festive concert programme.
