Heritage Malta has launched its events calendar with over 70 planned for the first six months of the year.
Minister for the the National Heritage, the Arts and Local Government Owen Bonnici launched the Heritage Malta events calendar, which he said, offers a wide variety of activities and experiences that may be enjoyed by people of all ages.
Minister Bonnici said that these initiatives are a brilliant opportunity for the public at large be introduced to various aspects of Malta’s history and culture while enjoying themselves in pro-active, hands-on experiences.
The jam-packed calendar running until the end of June targets children, teenagers, scholars, and the general public.
Events range from fun-filled, hands-on edutainment kids’ activities to large-scale and smaller exhibitions, re-enactments, members events, curatorial talks, thematic tours, public lectures, special openings of closed sites, harbour cruises, heritage trails, equinox events, as well as Taste History’s exclusive gastronomic delights.
Heritage Malta’s Chief Executive Officer Noel Zammit said that as guardian of over 8,000 years of history, the agency’s mission is to safeguard our cultural patrimony and make it accessible to all, both physically and virtually, thus contributing towards a better appreciation of Malta’s cultural identity.
