The Zelenodolsk Museum of Folk Arts and Ethnography

The Museum of Folk Art and Ethnography was created to reintroduce and promote the folk arts and crafts of Tatarstan: jewellery, ceramics, leather mosaic, gold embroidery, weaving, carving and painting on wood. The museum reintroduces these crafts through practical training, creating studios of craftsmen. Amateur associations are working at the museum to promote the traditional Tatar craft - a mosaic of leather and beadwork, as well as lace bobbin craft.
