International Museum Festival "Intermuseum" Automatic translate

Irkutsk Regional Art Museum. V.P. Sukacheva will take part in the Intermuseum international festival of museums, which will be held in Moscow from May 13 to 16, 2016 in the Manege.

260 Russian museums were represented at the Intermuseum contest. As a result, 165 museums entered the second round and were given the opportunity to demonstrate their experience in social activities as part of the most important museum event of the year. Among them is the Irkutsk Art Museum, which will present to the general public a socially oriented project "Steps Towards", dedicated to the work of the museum with visitors with disabilities.

Employees of the Irkutsk Art Museum have prepared a rich program for visitors to the Intermuseum - they will give lectures, hold master classes, and take part in the Children’s Program of the festival. The festival management became interested in the “Steps Towards” project, offering to print an article in the Museum magazine summarizing the experience of the Irkutsk Art Museum with people with disabilities.

This year, the Intermuseum Museum Festival is held under the slogan “Museum without Borders”, and its main goal is to draw attention to the museum as an important tool in the space of intercultural dialogue, to its social mission. Museum business professionals will find a business program with round tables and master classes on pressing industry issues. For visitors - creative meetings, workshops, performances, film screenings, a special program for children and, of course, familiarity with the world of museums.
