Traveling Museum: get to know yourself through art

About this project

<p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif">The Traveling Museum project is an international team of artists and art experts offering a unique opportunity to learn about contemporary art by visiting an interactive exhibition in their region. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif">Together, the symbiosis of&nbsp; three museums envisages systematically improving the accessibility of modern art and cultural products and services to the Lithuanian population, reducing cultural exclusion in Lithuanian regions, creating conditions for every Lithuanian to get to know and understand contemporary art, and receive the highest quality art education services closer to their territory.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif">It is planned to organize activities in Lithuanian villages, districts and cities (Molėtai district, Šalčininkai district, Antalieptė village, Biržai district, Šilutė district, Akmenė district, Druskininkai, Marijampolė). The project envisages cooperation with local cultural and artistic institutions, educational institutions, and non-governmental organizations. The results of the project are related to better communication between rural areas and cities, development of contemporary art audiences and knowledge of art through innovations. Based on the experience of the MO Museum and partners, contemporary art, when presented in an understandable language but in a non-traditional form, can have a positive impact on both children and young people, as through art a person discovers his identity, understands oneself better. </span></span></p>
