Abstract

The article is devoted to the history of the annual amateur art show at Kalinin State University in the first decade after its transformation from the Kalinin State Pedagogical Institute named after M.I. Kalinin in 1971. It is shown that serious progress in the nature of the competition, in the cultural and mass work of the university was started at the institute. They practically did not stop during the 1970s and at the university. There are changes in the composition of the performing faculties, the format of the review, the approach to the formation of the organizing committee and the jury of the competition, the requirements and criteria for evaluating concerts and evenings, etc. It is noted that the dominant position in the 70s was the position of supporters of «professionalism» in student amateur art. Despite the measures taken, it was not possible to achieve a mass systematic occupation of students with artistic creativity during this period. The article is written on the basis of the materials of the large-circulation newspaper KSPI (KSU) «Kalininets», as well as the memoirs of TvSU teachers
