In the autonomous republic, the preservation of handicrafts created by artists and their demonstration to local and foreign guests is in the center of attention. One of these places is the Nakhchivan State Painting Gallery, which operates in the autonomous republic, where pictures of various artists are displayed to visitors.

In accordance with the schedule drawn up by the Department of Tourism of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, on March 17, 2023, an excursion to the Nakhchivan State Art Gallery was organized for the fourth-year students of the Nakhchivan State University majoring in "Tourism and Hotel Management" to familiarize themselves with the handiwork of artists.
