Being well together
A project by Fondazione Luigi Rovati and Cooperativa La Meridiana that redefines the concept of museum access for people with neurodegenerative diseases and their caregivers.
Gentle Museum
The Art Museum of the Fondazione Luigi Rovati is a place of emotion, learning, and encounter. It is a space open to everyone, without distinction.
Those who work at the Museum are there for every visitor — to welcome, guide, and explain; to answer every question; and to build shared experiences together, not just as “special moments,” but as a daily practice.
It belongs to the public and exists for the public: it is the Gentle Museum (Museo Gentile).
Â
Gentle Museum brings together a series of projects specifically designed to welcome people with vulnerabilities or special needs — whether visiting independently or accompanied by family members, friends, or caregivers — through diverse experiences of engaging with the Museum and its works of art.
