It is actually a workshop inside the Matryoshka Museum. The teacher, Elena, is very patient and kind. She helped me to do the face and the hands which was probably more difficult as a first timer. She guided me to every steps, gave helpful tips and corrected my mistakes. It took me 3 hours to finish the 3 matryoshka and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also bought a paint your own kit that comes with paints, brushes, dolls, varnish and explanation at a very reasonable price. You can use the paints for 3 sets of dolls so I bought another 2 sets to take back home. There are exhibitions of Matryoshka and a small shop. There is also a map indicating food and quizzes which is very interesting and good fun. It is nice to make your own Matryoshka to bring home and more to give it as presents for friends.

The Shadow Museum displays a style of art that I have not seen anywhere else. We were given a guided tour, in English, of the artwork some of which was very clever. It is not the longest tour ever, we were there a little under an hour, but for less than a fiver a head, it is well worth a visit!
