Pushkin's Birthday of a Celebration 🎉

The streets around the Pushkin statue were alive with poetry yesterday as the InteRussia fellows joined locals to honor Russia's greatest bard on his birthday.

The fellows, led by the renowned Elmira Afanasyevna from the Pushkin Institute, took center stage. Some declaimed Pushkin's verses to a captivated audience. Nerves melted away as the familiar refrains of "I Remember a Wondrous Moment" rang out in rich tones.

🔍 After the readings, the fellows were whisked off for a museum tour. Wandering among the exhibits, they delved deeper into the life, loves, and artistry of the master.

As the day drew to a close, we emerged onto the street once more, Russian literature coursing through our veins.
