Sala Oval and 82 room
Prices: 

Free entrance.

Open house, except in the Zurbarán (super)natural exhibition.

Description:
On Saturday, April 12, we want to celebrate the first edition of Comunidad 360º, a project that takes a community-based approach to exploring the territories surrounding the museum within a 360-degree radius. This year, 2024-2025, we are starting with the neighborhoods of Sants, La Marina, and Poble-sec, in collaboration with civic centers, organizations, artists, and various community participation spaces.  
 
Looking ahead to 2029 and the expansion of the MNAC, this first edition is based on the idea of a museum-home: a space of refuge and calm, but also of action and transformation through art. We have worked on gastronomy through artistic techniques and shared dialogue around the collection; on museum artworks as windows for play and imagination; on knowledge passed from elders to youth and vice versa, and on popular memories through photography.  
 
On Saturday, April 12, we invite you to join us for the following program:  
 
- Open house, except in the Zurbarán (super)natural exhibition.
- Exhibition “The Open House” in Room 82, showcasing the traces of this community work with Sants, La Marina, and Poble-sec.
