Strides – 70 Years of Typhlological Museum
12th December 2023 – 12th February 2024
Opening of the exhibition – 12th December 2023 at 6pm
The exhibition “Strides – 70 Years of Typhlological Museum” presents the Museum’s many years of activities and its transformation from mainly charitable work into a museum of equal opportunities.
Always proactive and innovative, the Typhlological Museum has promoted the values of equality and inclusion – not only for blind and partially sighted individuals, but also for all other socially marginalised and disadvantaged groups. The exhibition showcases diversity of the Museum’s programmes over past 70 years: from its founding and the early collection of objects, to its unique concept of a tactile gallery, interactive permanent exhibitions, and contemporary museological approaches that have contributed to the Museum’s recognition and esteemed reputation.
This occasion also marks the 15th anniversary of the Museum’s fourth permanent display.
The exhibition will remain open until 12th February 2024.
