"Art of Kazakhstan in the Contexts of the Global Art Processes: 1920–2020", an original lecture series presented by art critic and international curator Valeriya Ibrayeva.

How was the Almaty Museum of Arts born?
Where did it all begin: with an idea, an intuition, or a personal decision? And how did this vision transform into a new landmark on the global cultural map, now visited by thousands?

On this day of love, we invite you to come sit across a person you know very well (or not at all!) and create their tender portrait.

This month we're launching a new program format – a monthly drawing club! This is an open-ended practice that helps you look at the museum space and its collection in a new way, slow down a bit, and immerse yourself in the drawing process.

This Januyalyq Jeksenbі, we will follow in the footsteps of artist Aisha Galymbayeva, and explore traditional Kazakh clothing by making our own paper characters – movable qyzdar (girls) and a jigitter (boys)!
