International Museum Day, observed annually on May 18th, was established by the International Council of Museums (ICOM) in 1977 to raise awareness about the role of museums in society.
The event focuses on a different theme each year, reflecting relevant topics or challenges encountered by museums globally.
The theme for this year, "Museums for Education and Research," emphasises the crucial role of cultural institutions in delivering a comprehensive educational experience.
