The @museomuacc (University Museum of Art and Cultural Center) is a remarkable institution that stands out among university museums. One of the aspects I truly appreciate about this museum is its building and location. Unlike many university museums, which are often housed within the university buildings, MUACC is conveniently located outside the university premises. This accessibility is crucial because it addresses a common barrier mentioned by the public audience, who may feel hesitant or intimidated to enter a university building.
The museum's collaboration with university students is another commendable aspect. MUACC actively engages students by offering internships that can be awarded with ETCS credits. This initiative not only provides practical experience but also aligns students with the museum's mission. Furthermore, the museum motivates students to interact with visitors, fostering a sense of connection and communication. This integration of students into the museum's operations is truly inspiring.
Despite its size, MUACC is a gem of a museum. Its mission, founded on a commitment to research, embraces the principles set forth by ICOM (International Council of Museums) and the values expressed in the Magna Charta Universitatum. The museum aims to disseminate knowledge through exhibition activities, education, and outreach endeavors.
The fundamental objectives of MUACC are defined in the context of a university that increasingly serves the community and its sustainable development. These objectives recognize the indispensable role of the museum institution in processes of social growth and change. Importantly, the museum embraces an inclusive, accessible, and multicultural approach, ensuring that its impact extends to diverse audiences.
The entrance is free.
