Tumo members have access to a rich program of film projections in a fully equipped 90-seat movie theater. Selected movies are screened on a daily basis as part of the digital media curriculum. They range from the classics to contemporary 3D masterworks. The Tumo Cinematheque is attended by an average of 1800 Tumo members every month.

At any given time, Tumo members have access to a wide range of workshops in our four focus areas and the supporting technical, artistic and professional skills. Workshops range from the beginner to the advanced, culminating in intensive project workshops. These are highly challenging team efforts that aim to produce work for submission to competitions and festivals, or publication in online venues and app stores. Workshops are led both by Tumo staff and by a constant stream of accomplished professionals from around the world.

The learning experience at Tumo is punctuated by a variety of ad hoc events that are both internal and open to the public. These are designed to stimulate, challenge and inspire members, as well as to further involve the local communities in Tumo activities. We host a number of exhibitions throughout the year and invite specialists to give lectures on topics related to the Tumo curriculum.

You can see highlights and get more details at the Workshops and Events sections.

The Tumo summer and winter camp is open to all young people between the ages of 12 and 18.

Camp Tumo is an intense experience combining learning and fun at the intersection of art and technology. It takes place in Yerevan, in four one-week sessions. Campers can come for just one week, or they can combine two, three and even four weeks in a row for an in-depth learning adventure.

The camp's morning program is made up of concentrated versions of the courses available throughout the year to the members of the Tumo Center for Creative Technologies. Campers will come away with their own hands-on creative projects by combining one of our four Focus Areas or two Specialty Courses, with a supporting Technical or Artistic skill.

During the second half of the day, campers have an opportunity to go on specially designed guided tours of Yerevan and surrounding areas where they have an opportunity to gather material for their creative technology projects. They can also choose to participate in sports events in the adjacent Tumanyan Park, also managed by Tumo. On Saturdays, everyone can come along on optional sightseeing field trips to some of Armenia’s most spectacular destinations.
