THE MUSEUM OF RUSSIAN ART | Visit the Museum of Russian Art!
Come and explore The Museum of Russian Art’s diverse collection! You can view the art in a guided tour, or you can choose to explore the galleries with the assistance of fun and engaging learning resources.
Come and explore TMORA’s newest exhibition – TMORA: 20 Years
The exhibition features TMORA’s permanent collection including religious icons, paintings, Soviet-era posters and artifacts, peasant crafts, samovars, toys, and other works from the collection. One of the key pieces is the the first painting donated to TMORA in 2002 by the Johnson family. A special section is devoted to curiosities that the Museum has accumulated in recent years, such as a brick of tea presented to Nicholas II, when he was still an heir to the Russian throne and a prince traveling in China, a collection of Imperial-era beer bottles, a peasant hand woven floor rug with solar symbolism, and more. TMORA expresses its profound gratitude to all the donors who contributed to the Museum’s remarkable collections.
Why TMORA? TMORA’s field trip experiences increase students’ understanding of the art, culture, and history of the region through our collections and exhibitions. Our educators connect students to the art so they can practice recognizing their own and others’ perspectives by articulating and explaining their perspectives empathetically, respectfully, and thoughtfully. After a visit at TMORA, your students will develop museum literacy skills and become lifelong learners in the museum setting.
