International Museum Day and Noite do Museus Lisboa

The culture sector has been one of the most affected by the pandemic. Taking into account the challenges that these spaces face, this year, the theme of the International Museum Day, celebrated on the 18th of May, is “The future of museums: recover and reimagine”.

And although we continue to have to respect social distancing and respiratory etiquette, the Directorate-General for Cultural Heritage again invites the museum spaces of the Portuguese Network of Museums to join these celebrations.

Before, there is still the European Night of Museums, on the 15th of May.

In order not to miss anything, the Government has compiled the entire schedule here.

I suggest the following events

• Museu do Ar Special International Museum Day
• Museu da Marioneta Special Program 
  • Exploring Mandragoa
  • Puppet Show
  • Special Animation at the Museum with Remedios do Risos
• Ajuda Palace Special program
  • 15th May
  • 18th May
