International Museum Day

 Thursday, May 18, 10:00 a.m. – 7:30 p.m.
 Free admission

The theme chosen this year to celebrate International Museum Day 2026 is “Museums Bridging a Divided World.” It highlights the potential of museums to serve as bridges across cultural, social, and geopolitical divides, fostering dialogue, understanding, inclusion, and peace within and among communities around the world.

To celebrate, the MUN:

• It will remain open all day Monday, May 18, from 10:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., with free admission, without interruption.

• Two free guided tours are offered, at 12:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., both of which will conclude at the exhibition “Can a Painting Be My Friend?” where various participatory activities on the theme of peace will take place, using Picasso’s *Guernica* as a point of reference.

• Two tickets to the London City Ballet performance on Thursday, May 21, will be raffled off among all visitors that day.
