The cooperation of the Public Organization of the Kryashens of the Republic of Tatarstan with cultural institutions of the Nagaybak and Chebarkul districts of the Chelyabinsk region was established back in the 1990s and has been successfully developing to this day.

The exhibition is the first large-scale event dedicated to the Nagaybak culture, which is organized outside the Chelyabinsk region. It is dedicated to two significant dates: the 280th anniversary of the adoption by the Nagaybaks of the Cossacks, as well as the 180th anniversary of the Kryashen educator, the founder of the Kazan central baptismal Tatar school, and teacher Vasily Timofeevich Timofeev (1836–1895). This year, the public also honors the brother of Vasily Timofeev - Ignatius Timofeev (1847–1915), the first teacher and enlightener of the Nagaybaks. Ignatius Timofeev conducted an educational and Christian mission among the Nagaybaks - the Cossacks-Kryashen of the Southern Urals.
