The A.P. Bogolyubov Arts Library will host a performance of "And Then They Killed Them All," a one-woman play by Svetlana Sologub.

The play is dedicated to the tragic events in the Kursk border region in August 2024 and is based on an artistic interpretation of real events. The narrative centers on the story of the village of Nikolayevo-Daryino, where all but one of the men were killed during the occupation. The playwright constructs the text as a "letter within a letter": the author's address to her mother transitions into a confessional letter from a fictional character—a village resident—who recounts life under occupation, fear, loss, and the gradual extermination of the male population.

Performed by Tatyana Dukhovskaya, an actress of the Bibliostsena theatre studio.

Furthermore, we have launched three major road concessions, which are also designed to improve traffic in Moscow.

How is the Polytechnic History Museum approaching 2026? With a commitment to profound and meaningful work. The priority is not simply displaying exhibits, but creating meaning. Drawing on the university's priceless legacy, the museum staff intends to strengthen the dialogue between science and society, archival documents and personal history, between yesterday and tomorrow.

In 2025, which marked the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, the museum organized and held a series of commemorative events and exhibitions. These initiatives offered a tribute and gratitude to the heroism of the victorious generation. Each event served as a powerful reminder of the unparalleled heroism, national resilience, and the decisive role of science, engineering, and technology during the harsh years of the Great Patriotic War. In total, the History Museum implemented nine projects related to the celebration of the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945.

The numbers speak for themselves: last year's figures reflect the dynamics of attendance and the activity of the exhibition program.

Around 600 tours were conducted for over 12,000 visitors. Two new exhibitions were opened: the "Laboratory and Museum of Mineralogy and Geology" and an exhibition dedicated to Prince Andrei Grigoryevich Gagarin. Over the course of the year, the museum prepared eight exhibitions, held 17 events, and participated in 14 specialized conferences.

The History Museum always welcomes visitors. Every visit is important: the exhibition walls hold stories we want to pass on, and a stroll through the halls should leave a lasting impression. Groups are greeted with a smile, tours are conducted in a friendly, accessible manner, and we strive to make everyone feel part of the university's history.

Classes for schoolchildren occupy a special place in the museum's program. Several educational routes and interactive formats have been developed for them, adapted for different age groups, from elementary to high school. The classes combine live exhibits, multimedia materials, and game elements, ensuring that even the youngest visitors are engaged and eagerly learn about the university's science, everyday life, and achievements.

These formats allow artists to present their work in significant public spaces. Alexey Fursin, Minister of the Moscow Government and Head of the Moscow Department of Culture

Six minutes to the big stage

Along with its popular flagship projects, the Moscow Production Center is also implementing new initiatives to promote emerging artists. Last year, a two-stage competitive selection process for the "Mosproducer Showcase" project was held. From 578 applications, experts selected 23 finalists, and after live auditions, 16 winners were selected.

"Those who made it to the finals had just six minutes to impress the jury. The most talented musicians performed in front of thousands of spectators in the small amphitheater and on the main stage of Zaryadye Park as part of the summer forum 'Territory of the Future. Moscow 2030,'" continues Ekaterina Yankina.

Change time zones

Mosproducer's large-scale projects annually uncover new names in the arts and provide a strong start for emerging artists. The group "Snimki," finalists of the "Mosproducer Line-Up 2024" project and artists of the "Tavrida.ART" label, moved from Novosibirsk to Moscow after a successful debut on the Moscow stage. Last year, the young glam rock performers received the Mosproducer Award for Best Integration of the Year for their performance of the legendary track "Pilots," which they adapted and performed at a concert commemorating Leonid Utesov's 130th birthday on the main stage in Zaryadye Park.

"Our band formed five years ago, during our first year at university. We started with covers of rock hits, performing at various events, student competitions, and festivals, but our real breakthrough came during our 2024 graduation in Moscow at Gorky Park. Thanks to Mosproducer, we found ourselves sharing the stage with A-list pop stars. Since then, we've participated in various projects with the production center, and at the end of last year, we finally moved to Moscow. We have a song called 'Time Zones,' and we decided not to change it: we gave up our tickets to Novosibirsk and stayed in the capital," recalls Snimki vocalist Yegor Sinitsyn.

Today, he, guitarist Matvey Aparin, and drummer Platon Parcelli write music together, rehearse, participate in radio and television castings, and participate in Mosproducer projects as residents.

"Mosproducer provides invaluable experience performing at large venues in front of thousands of people. His team are professionals, and the organization of competitions and concerts is top-notch. We hope this collaboration will be a starting point for us on our journey to the top. We're currently working on a huge hit and dreaming of releasing our first album," the musician shares.

Characters from Chukovsky's almanac decorated a bookstore.

Supporting young artists remains a key focus of Mosproducer. This year, the flagship project "Contours of Culture" will celebrate its fifth anniversary. During this time, artists (or winners of previous seasons) have decorated over 60 urban spaces with murals: theater venues, cultural centers, libraries, bookstores, and more.

One of the winners of the project's latest season, designer, architect, and artist Polina Gavrilova, painted the windows and walls of the "House of Books on Leninsky Prospekt." She was inspired by Korney Chukovsky's legendary almanac, "Chukokkala."

"This was my first major competition as an artist. While working on the sketches for the entry, I attempted to rework the almanac's motifs into digital collage art. These characters reflect contemporary cultural codes and the spirit of the times and serve as a unique visual stop amid the hustle and bustle of the city," says Polina Gavrilova.

The artist spent a month working on the collage. Assistants from Mosproducer assisted her with the painting. During this time, the store welcomed visitors who inquired about the new design, and some even contributed a few brushstrokes.

"Mosproducer gave me great confidence in myself and that I'm heading in the right direction. I also have a lot of content for social media, beautiful photographs, and publications in various publications, and I've participated in film shoots. This year, I'd like to hold a solo exhibition with Mosproducer, and my cherished dream is to open cultural clusters in all regions of Russia and introduce contemporary artists and musicians to the public," she shared with mos.ru.

Printed versions of the mural miniatures by the winners of the "Contours of Culture" project are displayed on the façade of the New Manege. You can also explore the work of Mosproducer's resident artists in the renovated "Hall No. 7" space on Marshal Malinovsky Street. Exhibitions, tours, and meetings with artists working in a variety of media—from painting and graphic art to mosaics and digital art—are held there.
