The TV crew spent a few hours in the museum having shot some unique exhibits and interior. A Moscow calligrapher Yuri Koverdyayev, the participant of the International Exhibition of Calligraphy, arrived in museum to participate in TV shooting. The graphic artist demonstrated outstanding art skills and fascinated the guests with a variety of writing styles.  The VGTRK team were satisfied with the video material and promised to make an exciting TV package as well as come to the excursion, with no cameras that time.
