Dear museum employees, congratulations on the International Museum Day!
17.05.2019
Please receive my sincere congratulations on the International Museum Day – your professional holiday!
The International Museum Day is celebrated worldwide each year on or around 18 May. The traditional role of museums is to collect objects and materials of cultural, religious and historical importance, preserve them, research into them and present them to the public for the purpose of education and enjoyment.
The variety of museums in the Vologda Oblast caters for people with a wide range of interests. Visitors tour the oblast's many museums, which together house a large collection of items from Russia's past. Numerous architectural monuments reflect the history of the region, most of them were turned into museums.
I wish you creative energy, successful searches, well-being and prosperity!
