The Museum of Russian Art
Russian Art Museum in Minneapolis, Minnesota / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Museum of Russian Art (TMORA), a nonprofit museum in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States, is the only major institution in North America devoted entirely to Russian art and culture from the entire scope of Russia's history.[1][2] The Museum was founded by prominent art collectors Raymond and Susan Johnson, owners of the largest collection of Russian Realist paintings outside the borders of the former Soviet Union.[3] TMORA was incorporated as a nonprofit in 2002 and opened at its present location in 2005. The museum shows 8-10 exhibitions per year, and hosts over 50 annual events ranging from notable lecturers to classical concerts to theatrical readings.[4] TMORA is open daily, located between Downtown Minneapolis and the Minneapolis Saint Paul Airport.[5]
