The modern exposition displays a variety of folk artworks, such as: national costumes, embroidery, ceramics and wood carving. There's also a section dedicated to history of education in Mukacheve town. The other big part of the exposition consists of everyday items: wooden objects, pottery, weaving, wickerwork and household tools (loom, spinning wheels, etc).

Each item of the exhibition is one of a kind, with unique ornaments and technique.

In the museum visitors can also see a collection of printed materials on the topic: textbooks, monographies, scientific journals, conference programmes, exhibition catalogues, photobooks, and many more. Total number of exhibits in the museum — 411 items. There not only guided tours available, but visitors can also take part in variety of seminars on folk culture and arts.
