Museo Omero Exhibition

Our RESPONSE partners at UPM were active partners and participant in the exhibition “Plastic Culture: Art, Design, Environment” which was held from May 20th  to August 31st 2022, at The State Tactile Museum Omero (Ancona).

This exhibition which was designed for audiences with visual, hearing, and cognitive difficulties, focused on the pervasive issue of plastic pollution in our environment, and featured works from well-known contemporary designers utilizing plastic materials.

In this context UPM was involved in dissemination activities and workshops aimed at explaining plastic pollution, impacts and solutions through tactile experiences, and was delivered as a workshop entitled: "Collect, sieve and recycle" for children and young adults.

The Omero Museum is a  permanent museum created to enable people with visual disabilities to learn about art through a direct tactile approach.
