The European Union has offered €150,795 in financial support for renovating the building and installing a modern heating system at the House of Culture in Carmanova village that is situated on the left bank of the Nistru River, IPN reports.
According to a press release of UNDP Moldova, the building was established in 1970s and has never been repaired until now. The heating system failed back in ‘90s and did not have any thermal insulation, water supply or sewerage. Because the thermal regime was not maintained, plaster was peeling off the walls and ceilings; paintings, costumes and other things were decaying.
Renovation is now going on at full speed. The heating system is being installed, windows have been replaced, and by May, the building will be connected to the water supply and sanitation system; the rehearsal rooms and the small concert hall will be renovated. Now the Carmanova House of Culture will become a regional creation center. It will host concerts and other artistic events with the participation of bands from both banks of the Nistru River.
The Carmanova House of Culture is one of over 80 infrastructural projects renovated in the framework of the EU-funded “Support to Confidence Building Measures Program” implemented by UNDP Moldova.
