Welcome to the Vanadzor Museum of Fine Arts! I am so pleased you found us on the world-wide web.

Our Museum maintains a rich and impressive collection of artwork. In fact, Vanadzor is home to a very large and vibrant group of artists of various media, and was historically known as the heart of Armenia’s art community.

The Museum is located in the beautiful Lori Region near other world renowned visitor’s attractions. For tourists, Vanadzor is a perfect stop on your trip. Our visitors section on the website can help you plan your excursion and learn more about the Lori Region. Both day trips from Yerevan and overnight visits incorporating other destinations are possible and very enjoyable.

We stand ready to assist you with your visit. The Museum can accommodate groups of students, adults, tourists and visitors from around the world. We can arrange for guided tours and translators in just about any language you request if you give us advance notice.

I also welcome your ideas for special events and exhibitions. We have hosted lectures, seminars, readings, performances and even concerts at our Museum. What better place to hold your special event!

For those of you that are unable to visit Armenia and Vanadzor at the moment, we hope this site provides a virtual tour of our collection, our scholarly works, and serves as a valuable source of reference for anyone interested in Armenian art.

Feel free to contact us by telephone or email with your questions and ideas, and we look forward to seeing you soon.

Sincerely,

Papag Aloyan
