traditional art from the collections of national art museums of different
Ukrainian cities.

Moldova, Poland and Russia were submitted to the contest. International
judges with the Head Judge, Yara Bubnova, selected 12 projects for further

International Museum Day: May 16 in Odessa, May 18 and 21 in Kharkiv.

During the press-conference detailed information on all the projects to be
realized in summer and autumn 2009 in Odessa, Kharkiv, Sevastopol, Poltava
