Santos Rocha Municipal Museum | April 29, 2024

On April 29, 2024, the Portuguese Association of Museology (APOM) celebrated Museologist Day at the Santos Rocha Municipal Museum in Figueira da Foz. The event, which included a session of presentations in the afternoon attended by TRANSMAT project fellow Maria Figueira (IHC-University of Évora/IN2PAST), featured a visit to the museum’s ethnography reserve, where the results of the ongoing project at the Municipal Museum were shared.

The TRANSMAT project research, which has been ongoing at this institution since November 2021, has been adding new information about the museum’s ethnography collection, contributing to the construction of a narrative rich in new stories that has been shared and well received by various audiences.
