The Museum of Arts and Crafts in Nizhny Novgorod is planned to open by the New Year.

      In the updated space, a permanent exhibition area and a place for workshops will be organized. The opening of the renovated Museum of the History of Artistic Crafts on Bolshaya Pokrovskaya Street in Nizhny Novgorod is scheduled for late 2026 - early 2027. This was reported in an interview with IA "Vremya N" by the general director of the Nizhny Novgorod Museum-Reserve, Yuri Filippov. "At the end of the anniversary and calendar year, the opening of the Museum of Artistic Crafts on Pokrovka is planned, where renovations are currently underway. We really want to make such a New Year's gift to all Nizhny Novgorod residents," emphasized Filippov. The future exhibition of the museum will showcase the entire ethnocultural diversity of the region, tell about the late culture of the rural population of craft and trade centers, and the economy and everyday life of the Volga peasant. At the same time, the artistic crafts of the Nizhny Novgorod region will remain the semantic center of the new exhibition. Earlier, we wrote about the presentation at the Rukavishnikov Estate of the updated exhibition of open storage of porcelain and glass.

      The Museum of the History of Artistic Crafts is located on Bolshaya Pokrovskaya Street in Nizhny Novgorod. It is housed in the "Artistic Crafts" building (fourth floor). It holds about four thousand exhibits that testify to the development of folk art and traditional artistic crafts of the Nizhny Novgorod region from the 17th century to the present day.

      The collection's special artistic and historical value consists of items from the collection of Nizhny Novgorod merchant D.V. Sirotkin and the famous artist-photographer A.O. Karelin. The museum's renovation was extremely necessary, as the previous exhibition layout was created over 40 years ago. Author: Pavel Zyuzin
