For a long time, they have been a lifestyle for us, a unique style of life with its rules and psychology. The traces of coffee culture in Armenia has a history of centuries, which has found its expression not only in everyday life but also in different branches of culture. Nowadays, in the storages of Armenian different museums are kept many materials about coffee and cafes which become the cornerstones of the project.

Every Friday from June, at 7 pm, will be meetings-talks and tasting hours in the Museum's Summer Park.
