Description

The project of the Museum House of Humor and the Norwegian University College for Green Development (HGUt) lasts 22 months. It includes revitalization of three museum spaces, creation of a permanent exhibition from the Museum''s collection with the working title "The Address of Satire" and a temporary exhibition addressing the role of satire in social processes, created with the participation of various communities. In the creation and presentation of the exhibitions the use of innovative technologies and tools is strongly represented, which provide a new way of understanding cultural heritage, engaging the experience of the audience and involving different social, cultural and ethnic groups and communities. The partner develops an innovative methodology for creating exhibitions through community-based curation. 4 trainings are organized for museum specialists, which increase their competence and improve the quality of the management of cultural heritage by the institution. As part of the project, the Museum creates a new library service that will provide accessibility to its unique specialized book collection. Two new jobs are being created in the Museum for specialists who will work to attract new audiences. An entrepreneurial plan with a implementation period of five years is being developed. In order to achieve the set goals and the set results, 12 activities are planned. The planned information and publicity activity will increase public awareness of the project activities, the Cultural Entrepreneurship, Heritage and Cooperation Program and the contribution of the EEA FM 2014-2021 and the donor countries at national, regional and / or local level.
