    Estimated reading time: 1 minute

    Every year, on May 18th, the world celebrates International Museum Day, a day dedicated to promoting the role of museums in the preservation and dissemination of cultural heritage. 

    Museums have long been recognized as vital institutions for preserving and presenting the tangible and intangible heritage of humanity. From ancient artefacts to contemporary art, museums collect, conserve, and share the stories and memories that define our collective identity.

    Museums remain an essential part of our cultural landscape, offering opportunities for education, reflection, and engagement. They provide a space for us to explore our shared history, celebrate our cultural diversity, and foster a sense of community.

    On this International Museum Day, let us celebrate the power of museums to inspire, educate, and transform. May we continue to build a world where our cultural heritage is celebrated, preserved, and shared for generations to come.
