“Our heroes, It is hard without you, but we will live; it is hard to dream, but we’ll dream; it’s hard to believe, but we’ll believe.”

In Noyemberyan, the troupe of the “Metro” theatre presented the play “Living dialogue” based on the stories of Vardan Amalyan, who died in the 44-day war. The stories, written by Vardan at the age of 11-13, were not just staged but were told from the stage, and Vardan’s messages were conveyed to the audience.

According to director Edgar Mehrabyan, “The title of the performance was not chosen by chance because every word brings life; whether we take it for an hour or ten days or our whole life, it is probably our personal problem.”

The members of the theater troupe admit that they always feel Vardan’s presence and spiritual power during the performances.

The actress Evelina Stepanyan says, “The performance is a call to live, to continue living and to live in a completely different way, after the war. ”

During the performance, parallel to the stories, the subject of the war and the feelings of that time are referred to.



On August 20 and 21, ProtoLab techno-engineering laboratory held an event named “The Prototype of the Future.” It was a significant date, as one year ago, on August 20, four young people from Noyemberyan officially established the “ProtoLab” techno-engineering laboratory.

The main goal of organizing the event was to increase the interest of the youth in the field of IT. People who have achieved success in the field shared their stories about the obstacles, failures, and achievements and inspired more than 150 participants of the event. The participants were young people from the enlarged Noyemberyan community and other regions of the republic.

Lectures and panel discussions on IT, business, and startups were held during the two-day event. The speakers were IT professionals from Armenia. The two-day event was accompanied by national songs and dances.

ProtoLab is an IT startup. In 2020, four friends from Noyemberyan decided to stay in the region and establish a techno-engineering laboratory to contribute to the development of Armenia. ProtoLab was officially opened in 2021. After one year, the startup successfully provides 31d modeling and printing services.

The goal of establishing the ProtoLab was initially to provide income to stay in the region. The founders note that the goal was reshaped in the process; the motivation was not the income, but the service to the Homeland.
After the establishment of the ProtoLab, there have been noticeable changes in the life of the enlarged Noyemberyan community. Young people say that the older generation has started believing in the younger generation, and they no longer complain about them, and young people have started working on their skills more and are determined to achieve their goals and dreams.
