The Botín Center, Chillida Leku, the Museum of Fine Arts of Bilbao and the Museo Universidad de Navarra have signed this Thursday a collaboration agreement to work together in the promotion and management of their respective museum projects, encouraging visits by the general public and expanding the benefits of the groups of Friends of each of the centers. The agreement, signed in 2019 by the first three entities and now joined by the Museo Universidad de Navarra, seeks to bring the proposals of each of these spaces to the public and encourage visits and participation.

The signing ceremony was attended by Miguel Zugaza, director of the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum; Mireia Massagué, director of Chillida Leku; Íñigo Sáenz de Miera, director of the Botín Foundation; and Jaime García del Barrio, director of Museo Universidad de Navarra. The alliance, in force as of tomorrow, March 10, will last for one year and, unless the parties decide otherwise, it will be automatically extended for equal periods.

The Botín Center is the Botín Foundation's most important project in its history. Located in Santander, it is an art center -an international reference- that seeks to bring an innovative point of view to the art world, and whose social mission is to promote the creativity of all audiences through the arts in order to generate economic, cultural and social development and wealth.

Likewise, for more than two decades, Chillida Leku (Hernani, Gipuzkoa) has represented the living memory of one of the most international Basque artists. Through its activity, it seeks to generate alliances and collaborative projects that contribute to disseminating Eduardo Chillida's artistic legacy, as well as to establish an enriching dialogue with contemporary artists and contemporaries of the sculptor through a quality exhibition, educational and cultural program. For its part, the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum is currently facing the decisive expansion designed by Norman Foster and Luis Mari Uriarte, which will act as a driving force for the transformation of a century-old institution that thus revalidates its history and its contribution to the artistic and cultural fabric of the territory. Finally, the Museo Universidad de Navarra, inaugurated in 2015 in the heart of the campus of this academic center, is a meeting place for contemporary art and artistic creation. The exhibition halls and the theater are the driving force behind the development of a project of creation, research, teaching and dissemination with a vocation of service to the whole of society. The project is articulated around its collection and the dialogue between the different artistic disciplines.

The four entities, which share their mission of service to society through art and the spirit of collaborative work, rely on this common strategic vision, coupled with their geographic proximity, to strengthen ties through this alliance. Together they seek to face the challenges currently faced by the institutions of the artistic ecosystem in a creative, open and close way to all their audiences. For the closest and most frequent visitors to each institution, the communities of Friends of the Museo Bellas Artes, Friends of the Centro Botín and the MUN and holders of the Chillida Leku annual pass, this new joint strategy expands their benefits as regular visitors to each institution and gives them the possibility of visiting the rest of the institutions under more advantageous conditions.

To achieve these goals, this agreement between the Botín Center, Chillida Leku, the Museum of Fine Arts of Bilbao and Museo Universidad de Navarra is articulated through three specific axes of museum management: fare reduction, support to groups of Friends and communication and dissemination of the agreement.

Fare bonus

Under this agreement, each of the centers will apply a 20% discount on the price of general admission that each space has established. All visitors who have previously visited any of the four entities and present at the ticket office the ticket proving the visit, as well as Cantabrian Pass holders, will be able to benefit from this advantage. The discount will be immediate and will only be applicable once for each ticket at each of the participating centers. It will not be cumulative to any other type of bonus or discount on ticket prices.

Friends Groups, Annual Pass

Friends of the Museo de Bellas Artes, the Botín Foundation and the MUN and holders of the Chillida Leku Annual Pass will enjoy a 30% discount on the price of admission to the other institutions that have signed the agreement.

Communication and dissemination

The benefits of this agreement will be announced in the communication media of each of the museums and, especially, in their digital channels (websites, electronic newsletters and social networks), according to a communication plan that highlights previously determined and agreed annual milestones (holiday periods, festivities, relevant exhibitions, etc.).

The objective here is to promote the collaboration and cultural offerings of each of the museums in order to, as in the rest of the agreement, promote the exchange of visitors within the scope of this new axis of cooperation between the Botín Center, Chillida Leku, the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum and Museo Universidad de Navarra.
