Adventure in museums: gymkhana in Museo Casa Natal de Jovellanos, Museo Nicanor Piñole, Museo del Ferrocarril de Asturias y Muséu del Pueblu d'Asturies
ADVENTURE AT THE MUSEUM: GYMKHANA OF MUSEUMS
On Saturday 16 and May 17, a gymkhana aimed at families and articulate about the history of the Montes-Entralgo family it will be organized. Big fans of art in its many disciplines, they collected pieces from the early nineteenth century.
Having no descendants, the last member decided to donate the family collection to the city of Gijon and thus safeguard treasured pieces over more than 150 years. Some of these pieces are currently on display in various museums of the city, specifically in the Museum of Pueblu Asturias, the Railway Museum of Asturias, the Jovellanos Birthplace Museum and the Museum Nicanor Pinole.
We need your help to bring them together and learn more about the history of this Asturian family whose name appears among the highlights of the world of collecting and patronage of art in our country. You will have a passport that includes clues to solve the tests, which shall be sealed at each museum to meet the challenge and get a prize if you can solve them all.
But this is a game. In any case we might aspire to reach the level of a little reflection, almost a fleeting look at the relationship between art collector with his pieces. A different way to celebrate the International Museum Day.
The activity is designed for Mystery and Adventure Literary Society.
