Skansen in Touch
The emergence of this project was inspired by the situation in Ukraine and the world in connection with the Covid-19 pandemic.
For the first time, a video tour for a children's audience will be recorded, as well as master classes on one of the most important crafts in Transcarpathia - embroidery and pottery. This allowed the museum to stay in touch with its visitors even in conditions where there is no full live communication and mass visits to the museum.
Video lessons are available on our YouTube channel.
