The Moscow-based Garage Museum of Contemporary Art is encouraging visitors to venture beyond the Russian capital, with the launch of their new art travel agency.

Promising to show you “Russia as you’ve never seen it”, the new project aims to show that contemporary art can be found far and wide in Russia.

“We will show you the diverse practice of Russian artists and get you acquainted with the local art scene,” reads a description from the agency.

Starting in mid-March, art tours will be available in 40 different cities throughout the country, with prices starting at 400 rubles ($7).
