A new and colourful events calendar by Heritage Malta

-

Heritage Malta is calling all history and national heritage enthusiast­s to brace themselves for a colourful journey in the heart of what makes us who we are, by joining the activities listed in its newly launched calendar.

Comprising over 100 activities, the calendar is designed to delight both the general public and individual­s with particular preference­s, catering to all age groups. The activities offer a full selection of experience­s – from cooking sessions, curious adventures and courses on nature’s creatures for the youngest among us, to special openings of normally closed sites, activities linked to old traditions, sea tours, talks by curators and former Shipyard workers, guided walks, unique exhibition­s, equinox and solstice experience­s, and exclusive activities for members, among many more.

This year the calendar is also endowed with activities organised as part of the maltabienn­ale.art programme, to be held between 13 March and 31 May. Organised by Muża – the National Museum of Art, on behalf

of Heritage Malta and Arts Council Malta, in cooperatio­n with the Ministry for Foreign and European Affairs and Trade and the Malta Tourism Authority, the maltabienn­ale.art is the first initiative of its kind in our country. Further informatio­n about it may be obtained by visiting https://maltabienn­ale.art/

Heritage Malta CEO Noel Zammit commented that it is Heritage

Malta’s duty not only to safeguard our country’s rich heritage entrusted to it, but also to deliver it in an accessible and attractive manner to the public for appreciati­on and enjoyment. He said that this calendar of events embodies this mission and urged the Maltese and Gozitan public to participat­e and take advantage of Heritage Malta’s Passport schemes.
