A Little Poland in Armenia

Polish community of Armenia was founded in 1995 in Armenia, Yerevan.In 1995 a group of Poles living in Armenia gathered and decided to create their own national communty.

Already in 1996 the community became an official organization. The first group of the Poles included only 60 people . These peolple knew each other very well.

And from that little group created nowadays' Polish community of Armenia POLONIA.
The president of POLONIA is Mrs. Alla Kuzminskaya. Mrs. Kuzminskaya did a huge job for the community.

Now in POLONIA there is a youth choir "GWIAZDECZKA"(in English it means "STAR"). "GWIADECZKA" took part in many festivals, competitions , semianrs and coures and won many prices.

In POLONIA there are also organised lessons of Polish both for the youth and for the grown-ups. Every year Polish teachers from Poland come to Armenia and teach Polish.

In Yerevan State Linguistic University due to Mrs. Kuzminskaya was opened a cabinet of Polish language, i.e. each year students of the University have the opportunity to choose Polish as their second language and study it.
