MUDAAC presents «Dream Museum», the result of a new participatory project of a group of inhabitants of the territory.

On the occasion of the bicentenary of the foundation of the museum and in echo of the operation “A dream world…” carried out by the cultural services of the Departmental Council (Departmental Archives, Cultural Action and Territorial Sports, Departmental Media Library, etc.) and more than 60 libraries and media libraries of the Vosges, the MUDAAC presents "Dreamed Museum", the result of an unprecedented participatory project of a group of inhabitants of the territory.
They have taken over the museum and its collections to build an exhibition that sounds like an invitation to travel. Then come to the museum to discover this dreamlike and quirky journey. Come and dream at the museum.
