Legends of Bayanaul
Bayanaul National Park, Kazakhstan | July 20-31 2025
The Bayanaul region is home to hundreds of picturesque rock formations, carved by wind and rain, and resembling everything from ships to heros to a lady’s comb.
Folklore at Home and on Stage
Ust Kamenogorsk, Oskemen, Kazakhstan | July 5-17 2026
Nestled at the edge of Kazakhstan's Bukhtarma Reservoir lies Polyanskoye, a village born from displacement and perseverance. Its residents descend from three distinct waves of settlers—Petrograd plant workers who fled on the eve of civil war in 1917, Old Believers escaping religious persecution since the 18th century, and Ukrainians who arrived through Stolypin's agrarian reforms.
