International Museum Day 2020
May 18th
ICOM has organized International Museum Day, which represents a unique moment for the international museum community.
The objective of International Museum Day (IMD) is to raise awareness about the fact that, “Museums are an important means of cultural exchange, enrichment of cultures and development of mutual understanding, cooperation and peace among peoples.” Organised on 18 May each year or around this date, the events and activities planned to celebrate International Museum Day can last a day, a weekend or an entire week. IMD was celebrated for the first time 40 years ago. All around the world, more and more museums participate in International Museum Day. Last year, more than 37,000 museums participated in the event in about 158 countries and territories.
The theme 2020 – Museums for Equality: Diversity and Inclusion
ICOM selects each year for International Museum Day a theme that is at the heart of the concerns of society.
With the theme Museums for Equality: Diversity and Inclusion, International Museum Day 2020 aims at becoming a rallying point to both celebrate the diversity of perspectives that make up the communities and personnel of museums, and champion tools for identifying and overcoming bias in what they display and the stories they tell.
Poster:
We invite you to adapt the poster in any way you seem fit according to the needs of your museum: maybe to promote a special exhibition for the occasion or any other event. A colouring version of the poster is also available, so we encourage you to propose visitors and the staff of your museum to colour it. Our objective is to have as many different versions as possible to truly represent the vast diversity of peoples that make up the communities of museums! When your masterpiece is finished, do not forget to snap a picture, upload it to your social media and tag us. We will share the best ones
