Open-air festival "Dachnoye Tsaritsyno" will be held in Moscow

The press service of the museum-reserve "Tsaritsyno" reported that from July 14 to 23, an open-air festival will be held in the Green Parterre at the Chernogryazsky Gate.

This year the theme of Dachny Tsaritsyn is restoration and the associations that this word conjures up. The organizers invite visitors to restore the idea of a vacation in the countryside and devote summer evenings for ten days to reading books, music, going to the theater and meeting with loved ones.

You can bring objects of arts and crafts to the festival, which guests can restore in one of the creative laboratories and under the guidance of specialists. There will be four workshops in total: patchwork, botanical drawing, woodworking and the basics of restoration.

In the mornings during the days of the festival there will be classes in gymnastics, yoga and stretching. For the duration of the training, all participants will receive a mat and a bottle of water. During the day, it will also be possible to visit a street market, a chess school, performances and concerts.

Entrance to the festival will be free, but participation in creative laboratories will require registration and a complex ticket to the museum.

The dacha history of Tsaritsyn began in the middle of the 19th century and ended with the 1917 revolution. Among the Tsaritsyn summer residents and their guests are the inventor Dmitry Ezuchevsky, the archaeologist and numismatist Alexei Oreshnikov, and the Chairman of the State Duma Sergei Muromtsev. Philosopher Vladimir Solovyov, poets Fyodor Tyutchev and Andrei Bely, writers Leonid Andreev, Ivan Bunin and composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky, singer Leonid Sobinov, artists Konstantin Korovin and Stanislav Zhukovsky came to visit Tsaritsyno. Numerous concerts, performances were held in Tsaritsyno, and summer residents had intellectual conversations and went in for sports.
