literary-memorial i.k. karpenko-kary museum

Had some free time on my hands while in Kirovorad this summer and decided to see few museums... to largely fail! Jewish History Museum was under reconstruction, Art Museum hosted a wedding, Karol Shymanovsky Museum was closed. So, having enjoyed Lore Museum and visited a somewhat disappointing small Osmyorkin Art Museum, I eventually decided to find Karpenko-Kary's. It is located in a narrow quiet street fairly off the city centre. And is probably to be visited only if you have already seen everything in Kirovograd or are very keen on theatre and/or Ukrainian drama. Unfortunately, when I came it was under re-arrangement for the autumn "new season". So the only exhibition left was of unknown local writers. Nothing about Karpenko-Kary except the improvised theatre bill pillar in the lobby.
