Theatre and Cinematographic Arts Museum

The Theatre and Cinematographic Arts Museum is a museum located in the Pechersk district dedicated to the history of performing arts. The collection includes costumes, puppets, musical instruments, and stage equipment from different periods of Ukrainian theatrical history.

The institution was founded in 1923 as part of the Berezil Theatre, a school for experimental theater. The original collection consisted of costumes, photographs, and posters that documented the beginnings of modern theatrical art.

The exhibitions showcase the work of Ukrainian artists and document the role of Jewish theater in the cultural life of the city. You can see how theater and film shaped local artistic expression over time.

The museum is located on Lavrska Street in the center of the district and offers regular opening hours for visitors. Guided tours are available in multiple languages to help guests understand the exhibitions more fully.

The museum holds original stage designs and costumes from the Ukrainian avant-garde movement, showing experimental theater traditions. These works are rare examples of artistic innovation from this historical period.
