Today’s meeting was also dedicated to the challenges and problems that exist in this direction: teachers' qualifications, their salaries, school infrastructure, the unification of art schools, etc.
The other issue of the meeting concerned the artists. In letters and meetings to the Committee, the artists complain that there are no spaces, galleries, where they can exhibit their works. We asked the representatives of the City Hall to work on finding an appropriate space for them”, - E. Bolkvadze stated.
