Museu de Sant Cugat
“Let’s Make a Museum” is an annual cultural initiative launched in 2009, whose main purpose is to bring the world of art closer to socially excluded groups, specifically people with intellectual disabilities. Let’s Make a Museum is a space for collective creation, demonstrating that art does not recognize “disability”. It is a space to build a fairer and more inclusive society, based on mutual trust and the renewing power of imagination. Over the past fifteen years, the project has worked toward the democratization of culture, with the support of local organizations and artists who contribute both guidance and quality to the experience. This initiative shows that everyone can be an artist and creator, without prejudice or limitations, and that art can serve as the perfect tool to bring together two worlds that often turn their backs on each other, fostering dialogue and mutual enrichment. To make this project possible, it is carried out in close collaboration with the Citizenship Area of the City Council and the Sant Cugat Disability Council.
