Although interactive content and virtual reality tools are widely used in many museums all over the world, they haven't yet become as popular in Ukraine, so the Museum of News was truly a cultural breakthrough.
Around 100 000 people visited the exhibition in just 3 weeks (March 3-26, 2017). Up to 500 excursions were held. The youngest visitor was just 7 years old. The oldest visitor was a 92-year-old Auschwitz survivor, scientist in mechanical engineering Ihor Malytskyi. An average time spent at the museum was around 2.5 hours.
The number of media publications was 388. Total media coverage of the project was over 7 879 700 people. More than 7900 photos from the museum were published on Instagram.

7. «Museum of News. It’s what impresses and those who amaze.
It’s when twenty years are spread before you, when you’re
bursting with pride for your country; and overwhelming
emotions from what you’ve seen! It is worth not just attention
but also one’s admiration!»
Kateryna Verbynska, museum visitor
8. More than 150 TV screens are

«Museum of News is a very unusual word combination which
I had not even suspected before. One can understand what
is aviation or contemporary art museum but it is hard to imagine
how you can set the news in the exhibition space. I was very
curious. Interactive installations are impressive».
Yevhen Halych, leader of the O.Torvald band
9. «TSN 20 years» is undoubtedly the best exhibition I have ever
visited. I’ve learned how to make news, how hard
the reporter’s work is, recalled all the history of our country,
watched 60 TVs at the same time, presented a weather
forecast, interviewed a panda several times and especially
liked the role of TV news anchor!»
Natalia Tkachenko, museum visitor.
11. «The Museum of News is striking! It’s so large-scale! I am very
grateful that the channel kept the brightest moments of our
history. This is not just news, it’s a chronicle of our independent
Ukraine. There is an emotion here, we can see what happened
in the past and what is going on now, we can see how we’ve
changed. We have even forgotten some of those moments but
the museum reminded us of important things».
Tonia Matvienko, singer

13. «The Museum of News is a very interesting and unexpected
concept for Ukraine, as well as its striking implementation. People
who watch the news daily will be one hundred percent able
to feel the atmosphere that reigns behind the scenes of
a television studio, and also to see the reverse side of the
reporter’s and cameraman’s work. There are answers here
to all the questions about news production».

15. IDEA
This project was created with the sole purpose – to show that news
is an integral part of your life, that you are the news creator and its
hero; that you decide how long a piece of news should live; that it only
depends on you whether news brings harm or benefit. News will never
end until the history goes on.
16. The project was dedicated to the 20th
Anniversary of the country’s main news
provider – TSN on «1+1» TV channel. After
the project, the word «news» in people’s
thoughts should be associated only with TSN.
