Education department
Museum of Contemporary Art's Education Department designs and implements various programs, including creative workshops, art education programs and courses, meetings with artists, guided tours, lectures, round tables, symposia, interdisciplinary projects, EU funded projects... All these programs are integrated under the collective term msu education and are aimed at all visitors – from children and young people to people in their 'third age'. The main purpose of these programs is to bring contemporary art and culture closer to the general public. We want to make the Museum a pleasant, creative and inspiring environment for all visitors! Most programs are implemented by our curators and museum educators, but we also collaborate with numerous external experts and educators in order to provide diverse programs and rich experience for our visitors.
