There's even a year-round school on the premises that allows children to visit Artek during the academic year without missing classes. Out of ten camping complexes that comprised the original Artek complex, nine have been renovated and are operational.Ī state-funded institution, Artek recently received the special status of an innovation educational platform to test and implement new forms of teaching. Today, its size is larger than Monaco (218 hectares in total, with 102 hectares of parks) and has two swimming pools, six dining halls, 15 sports grounds, three tennis courts, plus a climbing wall and a rope park, among other things.
In 2014-2017, the Russian government invested 10 billion rubles ($171 million) to revive the legendary camp.
