The article reviews and briefly analyzes the development of issues related to the organization of amateur art activities using the example of the Surkhan oasis. It provides data on the style of performance, ensemble participants, repertoire, and uniqueness. The history of folk oral art in the Surkhan oasis goes back thousands of years. National values were preserved in full. Initially, cultural and educational institutions, clubs, and "red teahouses" created by the Soviet government were organized based on its objectives. In particular, "cultural education" was carried out in the form of publishing wall newspapers, reading newspapers, reading books, listening to the radio, and various conversations and lectures. However, these activities did not receive due recognition among the people. The residents of the Surkhan oasis are also considered to be a people who have remained faithful to their rich material and spiritual heritage. In particular, the oasis has exceptionally well preserved ethnographic values.
