Muse Ticket Office Launches Suspended Ticket Initiative for Social Welfare
June 2023
The Muse ticket office in Trento has unveiled an innovative and heartwarming initiative aimed at promoting cultural welfare and social inclusion. The “Suspended Ticket” program, spearheaded by Director Massimo Bernardi, is designed to offer free museum entrance tickets to individuals and communities in need, embodying the spirit of the museum’s commitment to public service and social welfare.
Embracing Cultural Welfare
The initiative aligns with the principles outlined in the WHO guidelines and Article 9 of the Italian Constitution, emphasizing the importance of culture in social policies. By integrating cultural experiences into basic social services, the Muse aims to support the development of individuals and communities, fostering a sense of belonging and social cohesion.
Partnerships for Social Impact
The suspended tickets have been allocated to ten local organizations specializing in combating economic poverty. These organizations, identified through a competitive call, will distribute the tickets to their beneficiaries while ensuring confidentiality. The beneficiary organizations include Villa S. Ignazio, Trentino Solidale, Meeting Point, Game of Mirrors, Fairies, Astalli Center, APAS, SOS Village of the Child, Adam 099, and Caritas Diocesana.
Expanding Horizons with the Summer Campaign
The suspended ticket initiative is not just a one-time event but a continuous effort. The summer campaign (June-August 2023) has already seen promising participation, reflecting the community’s enthusiasm for the program. This initiative is part of a broader effort by the Muse to enhance inclusion, accessibility, and multiculturalism, addressing the needs of diverse social groups, from the elderly and youth to immigrants and marginalized communities.
Future Cultural Projects
In addition to the suspended ticket initiative, the Muse has several cultural projects lined up for 2023. These projects aim to involve various communities, including foreign associations, migrants, individuals with drug addictions, prisoners, and socio-educational minors. By fostering intercultural participation, the Muse seeks to create a proactive dialogue with different social sectors, enriching the cultural landscape of Trento.
Why This Matters
In an era where social divides are increasingly evident, initiatives like the suspended ticket program are beacons of hope. They demonstrate the power of culture in bridging gaps and promoting social cohesion. By making cultural experiences accessible to all, the Muse is not just preserving art but also nurturing a more inclusive and empathetic society.
