PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The main activities we propose in the project include: permanent exhibitions showcasing local traditions and customs through folk garments, handmade workshops, tools, and crafts used to create new items, rural or traditional festivals with regional music, and educational events such as conferences and debates, as well as exchange of practices between partners.

Opening an ethnographic museum and hosting exhibitions can profoundly impact a community and beyond due to its role in cultural preservation. The ethnographic museum is vital for safeguarding the cultural heritage of the community by preserving artifacts, traditions, and stories that might otherwise be lost over time. It can educate the public about the diverse cultures and histories of various ethnic groups and become a community hub where people gather to celebrate their heritage, share stories, and engage in cultural activities. This strengthens community bonds and fosters cultural pride.

Additionally, the museum can attract tourists, boosting the local economy, creating jobs, and supporting local artisans and craftspeople. Opening an ethnographic museum is not just about displaying artifacts; it's about creating a space where cultures are celebrated, understood, and preserved for future generations.
