The Cultural Heritage Days 2024 will be held from 31 August to 8 September. This year’s theme is “Traces, networks and connections”.
The theme of this year’s Cultural Heritage Days is “a reminder that both the tangible and intangible cultural heritage is an image of how peoples, societies, countries and cultures have long been interconnected, and how we continue to be so through values, practices and a shared desire to protect and give meaning to our individual and collective history.” Read more on the Cultural Heritage Association’s website.
