Over the 5 years of the existence of “Fridays at Pushkinskiy”, we realized how much the audience liked our project: there are listeners who come to the museum literally every Friday, there are those who come from other cities on purpose, and everyone notes that “Fridays” are the opportunity to plunge into the unique, magical atmosphere of art and music. Unique specialists - curators of exhibitions, custodians of collections, researchers - help to look into the backstage of the museum, to see what is usually inaccessible to visitors. Thanks to the “Fridays at Pushkinskiy” museum guests become his real friends.
