Anna Khilkevich and Daniel Vegas will participate in the VK Lecture Series in Nizhny Novgorod.

      On July 11, in Nizhny Novgorod, as part of VK Fest (0+), the VK Lectory program will take place, featuring musicians, actors, bloggers, entrepreneurs, and science popularizers. This was reported by the press service of Vkontakte.

      One of the central themes will be a discussion on how love for Nizhny Novgorod transforms into federal-level projects. The discussion will be moderated by the host of Channel One, Yulia Kozlova.

      Participants in the discussion will include the frontman of the band Uma2rman, Vladimir Kristovsky, TV presenter, Forbes "30 Under 30" winner, and founder of the beauty brand LUVU, Katya Golden, co-founder of Dreamlaser and general producer of the multimedia art space TSEH*, Denis Chuchko. Restaurateur Sergey Ukhanov will talk about the gastronomic image of the city.

      A meeting with actress Natasha Bardo will be dedicated to the theme of family and upbringing. Actress, entrepreneur, and producer Anna Khilkevich will join the conversation. The speakers will discuss how parents manage to balance career and family, build trusting relationships, and instill a sense of support in their children.

      Beauty experts Valentin Bernandskiy and Elena Krygina, along with Miss Russia Valentina Alekseeva, will talk about the balance between fashion and individuality—how to navigate trends, create harmonious images, and maintain one's own style.

      Young actors Denis Vlasenko ("Passions for Matvey" (16+)), Daniel Vegas ("Your Heart Will Be Broken" (16+)), and Danya Kiselev ("Youth. New Shift" (16+)) will share their paths to the profession, admission to theater universities, and first steps in film and television.

      A separate block will be dedicated to the popularization of science and working with the audience in the digital environment. Participants will discuss how scientific knowledge goes beyond laboratories—into blogs, podcasts, and online lectures.

      At the end of the Lectory, bloggers Aigor, Mash Milash, Vadim Spiridenkov, and TV host Prokhor Shalyapin will share their experiences in creating viral content. The discussion will cover popular formats and topics, as well as why sincerity helps gain audience trust more effectively than a flawless "glossy" picture.

      It is noted that the VK Lectory program will be supplemented.
