On March 18, 2022 the Institute of Arts, Culture and Sports of Abai KazNPU hosted the opening of a «Coffee Notes» coffee shop and a gallery «Zhasampaz: sale of pictures» for students and teaching staff. The event was held according to the development strategy of the institute.

Rector Darkhan Bilyalov, Vice-rector for administrative and financial activities Klara Iskakova and Director of the Institute of Arts, Culture and Sports Tokkozha Kozhagulov took part in the opening ceremony of the gallery.

It was noted that it is also a working centre, which gives a special place to fashion and beauty of our university, as well as one of the most important centres for students, who spend their leisure time together and creative communication. We wouldn`t be wrong to say that the coffee shop and gallery are an environment that gives people ideas and inspiration while they work. The new spaces have been created to sell the creative work of students studying in the Design and Art Education departments. It is a small business centre, generating income for the institute and the students.
