YEREVAN. – Along with its traditional exhibition halls, a virtual exhibition hall will also function at the Armenian ancient manuscript museum (Matenadaran). There will not be any exhibits here and screens will replace them, the Matenadaran Director’s advisor Gurgen Gasparyan informed Armenian News-NEWS.am-Innovation.

In his words, everyone will now be able to scroll the screens at the virtual exhibition hall. This will enable the Matenadaran to exhibit greater number information while the visitors will be able to view whatever page they wish. According to Gasparyan, the virtual exhibition hall will be ready by coming spring.

“The exhibition halls will operate in the old building of the Matenadaran, and this building’s renovation will come to an end next spring. The building, together with its halls for 9 exhibitions including a virtual hall, will operate next September,” Gasparyan noted. 

Official opening of the Matenadaran’s new building will be held on September 20.
