Guide: You’ll be led by a local artist throughout your experience.
You’ll be given all the tools you need to create your own custom miniature door.
Step into our art studio and bring a piece of Gyumri’s history to life by making and painting your own miniature Gyumri door – a replica of the city’s famous ornate wooden doors from the turn of the 20th century. Using molds, you’ll craft and customize your own door magnet, a unique and easy creative experience perfect for all skill levels. After your workshop, you’re welcome to stop by our coffee window, where our barista will draw your portrait on your coffee cup before revealing your future through a traditional Armenian coffee ground reading. Located in the heart of Gyumri’s historic center, our art studio offers a fun, hands-on way to connect with the city’s art, culture, and traditions – and take home a handmade souvenir from Armenia’s art capital.

I was in a rush, so I didn’t get a chance to paint the door myself, but I bought a door, and they kindly gave me a window too. They instantly take a photo and share it on their wall like breaking news, which was really fun. You can even get it for just 500 AMD. They also have fridge magnets with QR codes that let you watch an episode of Varem Marem from the picture. Such a creative and unique experience

Absolutely recommend going to Varem Marem Studio when visiting Gyumri. It's such a fun and creative space! There are lots of activities. My friend and I did the Gyumri door activity. We first chose which style of door we wanted, mixed the ingredients, cast it into the mold, and then painted them. They double as magnets! There's a coffee shop right next to it where you can grab a coffee and get your portrait drawn on a cup after standing for just 5 minutes (she’s amazing, won’t disappoint), plus a cute souvenir shop right beside it :)
