Russian Society for Aesthetics, established in 2017, is the interregional public organization called to unite those for whom the fate of research in Russian aesthetics is not indifferent, who want to be aware of all events taking place in the world of aesthetics in Russia and abroad and who feel the strength and desire not only to watch how Russian aesthetics are moving by leaps and bounds, but also want to take an active part in this movement. The goals of Russian Society for Aesthetics are promoting the development of aesthetics as a field of professional knowledge and education in Russia, professional consolidation of scientists and specialists conducting research in the field of aesthetics in Russia and attracting the attention of scientists in other fields and the general public to aesthetics.In 2018 the society launched a new journal of aesthetics titled Terra Aestheticae.
