The Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center has set up a truly innovative program for kids and adults from Jan. 3 — 10. Every day and every evening there are excursions of the permanent and temporary exhibits, including Anish Kapoor's "My Red Homeland"; a series of discussions on Soviet history and everyday life; evening film showings — a Frederico Fellini festival! — and a cool program for kids called a Symphony of the Senses. The museum joined up with Hobby World games and developed daily programs that let little people delve into the senses with master classes, quests, games, and excursions.
Some of the activities are free of charge; some are free but require registration ahead of time; and others have fees. The kids' activities range in price from 500 rubles ($7) for a master class to 1,900 rubles ($26) for a full day of activities, including lunch.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
