3) "Search for the past - the discovery of oneself": events dedicated to the search movement, which is aimed at conducting research work and preserving the historical memory of the Great Patriotic War.

Traditionally, new interesting expositions will open on the Museum Night, entertaining quests, game programs for children, sightseeing, thematic, curatorial excursions, exhibitions-fairs and master classes of folk craftsmen, and concert programs will take place. “Cultural streaming” will also be organized – live broadcasts on the all-Russian portal “Culture.RF” and on social media.
