INTERNATIONAL MUSEUM DAY 2025

TO CELEBRATE THIS DAY, THE MUSEUM OFFERS ACTIVITIES ON THURSDAY, MAY 16

With the theme "The future of museums in ever-changing communities," International Museum Day 2025 invites reflection on how museums can navigate and contribute to a world undergoing profound social, technological, and environmental change.

Museums have long been spaces for learning, reflection, and dialogue. However, in an ever-changing world, their role goes far beyond conservation. They are dynamic institutions that drive social innovation, embrace new technologies, and foster inclusive communities.

The International Council of Museums (ICOM) created this day in 1977 to raise public awareness about the role of museums in the development of society. Since then, the event's popularity has continued to grow.
