Take a stroll through history at CVAR and see the amazing views that visitors and travellers have described centuries ago.
Explore more than 40.000 photographs from the 1880s to 1970s that touch upon many aspects of Cyprus life.
Discover more than 1,000 paintings produced by travellers who visited Cyprus between the 18th and 20th century displayed at CVAR’s four floor permanent exhibition area.
Every year the Centre of Visual Arts and Research receives thousands of children, and organises various educational programmes and workshops for schools and families. Our basic aim through these programmes is to transform a museum visit into a memorable experience for children and through creativity and fun, travel back in time and in the history of Cyprus from the 18th to the 20th century.
These programmes aim to instill values and concepts such as empathy, acceptance, and mutual understanding in children.
You can get a yearly membership to enjoy priority seating and early access to information.
Your support is essential and allows the Museum to share its collections with the world.
