Capolavori e tante storie fai da te

A contest to ignite creativity and relive the beauty of 11 masterpieces of Italian art kept in Milan's museums.

MuseoCity, thanks to the collaboration with Milanoguida, proposes a competition to reinterpret 11 works of art selected from the Milanese museums. The aim is to involve you and make you more aware of the importance of the artistic and cultural heritage of the city, while at the same time offering you one more tool to face the long days at home.

MuseoCity is a non-profit association that works for the promotion and enhancement of the great Milanese museum heritage. The intent is to increase the involvement of an ever wider audience in the participation of the artistic and cultural life of the city, also giving the Museum a comfortable and welcoming dimension.

The contest is open to all.

Entering the contest is simple:

  • download and color one of the drawings and continue one of the stories proposed every week from the site https://www.museocity.it/evento/5e754479f52ee400165374c8/;
  • take a photo and share it on your Instagram or Facebook profile and tag @museocity and @milanoguida, or send it to us by email at info@museocity.it;
  • remember the hashtags #MuseoCity #Milanoguida #laculturanonsiferma #iorestoacasa

Everyone will be able to participate every week by coloring only one drawing among those proposed, completing a story, or with a drawing and a matching story.

The competition will end on Sunday 3rd of May 2020.

Winners will be contacted within 10 days of the end of the competition.

 

Each week the most beautiful drawing and story will win a guided tour among those selected by Milanoguida: San Lorenzo, Santa Maria della Passione, Casa Museo Boschi Di Stefano, Museo del Novecento, La Milano di Matteo Bandello, Milano CityLife. The visits will take place as soon as the current restrictions are overcome and the situation has returned to normal.

The jury is made up of members of the MuseoCity Association and Milanoguida. The jury's evaluation will take into account the following criteria: accuracy of the drawings and pleasantness of the texts received, but will also take into account the aesthetic criteria and the value of the message transmitted.
