The main building of the children's school of arts in Karakol, located at 134 J. Alyshbaeva Street (formerly known as Lenin Street), was erected 130 years ago.
The current director of the school, Narynbek Omurzakov, reported that documents confirming the age of the building have not been preserved. Initially, it consisted of one room, and its history has only been officially recorded since 1938. During this period, 10 new rooms were added to the main building, and in 1960, another 9 were added.
All new rooms were small and had low ceilings; later, during renovations, the walls were raised.
In 1953, a music school was opened here. In 2018, after expanding its programs, the institution was renamed the Children's School of Arts of the city of Karakol.
Currently, 313 children are studying at the school, and the staff consists of 42 employees.
The educational process covers 10 areas: piano, guitar, violin, flute, komuz, choreography, accordion-bayan, vocals, visual arts, and epic singing (yr dastan). In 2017, piano teacher Tatyana Kuznetsova shared information that the building was constructed by Y.I. Korolkov in 1893 for use as an administrative office.
“In this office, Korolkov addressed various tasks. His daughter lived nearby, and we often communicated. During the formation of the USSR, Rudolf Pavlovich Marechek came to the city and had a significant influence on the establishment of Soviet power in Karakol. Negotiations between R. Marechek and Julius Fucik took place in this building. Fucik wrote in a letter to his wife about his admiration for the beauty of Karakol, calling it one of the most beautiful cities,” Kuznetsova recounted.
She also noted that in 1930, a model school opened here, and later, a dormitory for students of the agricultural technical school.
