Heritage exhibition in Gozo

Visitors to Gozo can enjoy a photographic exhibition of Fondazzjoni Patrimonju Malti's contribution to Malta's cultural scene.

The exhibition, which runs until May 27, focuses on Patrimonju's most prominent and successful exhibitions over the past years including The Silver of Malta, Costume in Malta and Antique Furniture in Malta. A number of artefacts from the exhibitions themselves are also on display.

Patrimonju's publishing division is also well represented, with visuals of the various publications.

There is also reference to Patrimonju's current project, the conversion of Palazzo Falson, in Mdina into Malta's first state of the art museum. Commencing in early 2003, the Maltese heritage foundation has dedicated all its time, energy and funds to the ongoing restoration of the palazzo and its treasures. While the palazzo itself is of huge importance and interest, the collections it houses are in themselves also breathtaking with almost 4,000 pieces divided into 45 priceless collections.

The Gozo photographic exhibition is partly financed by Heritage Malta and is supported by the Ministry for Gozo. It is mounted at Ministry for Gozo in Victoria.
