US provided $74,000 for restoration and preservation of manuscripts  from Nagorno-Karabakh

ArmInfo. The Mesrop Mashtots  Research Institute of Ancient Manuscripts, known as "Matenadaran,"  hosted a presentation for a project aimed at restoring and promoting  the written heritage of Nagorno-Karabakh. The heritage is stored in  Matenadaran with the assistance of the US Ambassador's Fund for the  Preservation of Cultural Property. As reported by the press service  of the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports, the  program is currently being implemented thanks to a US grant of  $74,000. It focuses on the preservation and restoration of  manuscripts and unique archival documents written and illustrated in  the 13th-18th centuries in Gandzasar, Dadivank, Gndevank, Khadavank,  Gtchavank and other Armenian medieval monasteries. These documents  shed light on the rich Armenian cultural heritage and help fill  historical gaps. The program is set to be implemented over a period  of 3 years.

Before the program presentation, a meeting took place between the US  Ambassador to Armenia, Kristina Kvien, and the Minister of Education,  Science, Culture and Sports of Armenia, Zhanna Andreasyan.  During  the meeting, the Ambassador highlighted the US's commitment to  enhancing relations with Armenia, and underscored the importance of  collaboration with the MOESCS in various areas. Ms. Kvien expressed  her willingness to facilitate the implementation of joint  initiatives. The interlocutors discussed the possibility of holding a  joint exhibition of the William Saroyan Museum in Fresno with one of  the museums in Armenia, as well as several other issues of mutual  interest.
