"Letal i Shagal" Studio at AZ Museum is more than just drawing lessons — it is a space where art becomes a key for a child to explore the world and themselves. Operating within the walls of a museum dedicated to Anatoly Zverev, the studio inherits his spirit of freedom and bold experimentation. Like the master himself, for whom drawing was a direct statement and a way to capture the essence of an image, the program teaches not only technique but also the ability to see, think, and boldly bring one's ideas to life.
Each class is a harmonious journey consisting of two complementary parts. In the first, theoretical part, through lively dialogue children immerse themselves in the world of great artists, learn to "read" paintings, analyze the artist's intent, and articulate their impressions, developing visual literacy and critical thinking. The second, practical part, allows them to try a wide variety of techniques — from painting and drawing to collage and sculpture.
Duration — 1.5 hours. Groups of up to 10 children.
Single class — 1500 ₽
Monthly subscription (4 classes) — 5000 ₽
An accompanying adult can enter the museum free of charge by obtaining a ticket at the box office upon arrival.
We learn why Picasso called him a great Russian draughtsman and Costakis called him "the Russian Van Gogh." We draw a portrait using oil pastel and watercolor.
In May at "Letal i Shagal" Studio, we will draw puppies, admire cherry blossoms, and invent our own mythical creatures.
By metro
We recommend travelling to Mayakovskaya metro station. The walk to the AZ Museum will take around five minutes. After leaving the station, turn first to the right into the alley, then moving forward, at the first intersection, turn left to 2nd Tverskaya-Yamskaya street. Walk a few meters. AZ Museum will be on your right.
By car
There are paid parking spaces on either side of 2nd Tverskaya-Yamskaya street or in the nearest alleys. Parking is limited, and on weekends and public holidays, the parking lots may be full.
