"Ter-Ghazaryans’ Micro Art" is the first museum of microminiatures in Armenia. The main exhibition includes the micro works of grandfather and grandson Eduard Ter-Ghazaryan, placed on specially designed pedestals, with built-in lighting. Exhibits depict some of the cartoons created by the elder Eduard Ter-Ghazaryan, part of his unique musical instruments. The film portrays his multilateral and phenomenal genius. The idea of creating a museum was born in 2009, when grandfather Eduard Ter-Ghazaryan transmitted the secrets of this unique art to his namesake grandson, with the message that the latter preserves them, develops micro art and transmits it to future generations. The Ter-Ghazaryans’ Micro Art Museum has operated since November 1, 2018.
