"Encounters" with the exhibition guests
During this celebratory weekend, visit the "Encounters" exhibition with the guests who took part! For this exhibition, twelve people from different communities were invited by MEG to tell the personal, important and often moving stories that link them to the Museum's collections. These stories are the result of a long process of interviews, reflections and discussions. Each guest has chosen an object from his or her community of origin.
