Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin ordered that a new professional holiday be included in the calendar – Artist’s Day.
It is planned to celebrate it on January 17 – the birthday of the first People’s Artist of the USSR, one of the founders of the Moscow Art Theatre, an outstanding teacher and creator of the acting system, Konstantin Sergeyevich Stanislavsky.
The document requires the Ministry of Culture to issue a departmental regulatory act within six months, enshrining this decision.
January 17 will be a holiday for theater, film, and circus artists, as well as musicians and pop performers.
The initiative to establish Artist's Day was approached to the Government by the Chairman of the Union of Theatre Workers of Russia, Vladimir Mashkov.
