A series of contemporary art itineraries with the 2017 Contemporary Weekend in the museums of Naples and Campania.

A new interesting initiative, the Weekend of the Contemporary, which will involve some museums of Naples and Campania, It will take place from 12 to 14 May 2017. This is an event organized by the Mother Museum  who also wanted to involve all the other museums and places of contemporary art by making sure that they all reported exhibitions in progress and extraordinary openings.

The Madre has given life to this project for the inauguration of two new exhibitions in its spaces: "We Are Here" by Wade Guyton e "English for Foreigners" by Stephen Prina. All art lovers can create their own personalized itinerary and visit the exhibitions that they prefer among those scheduled.
Below is the list of participating sites. We remember that there will also be the European Night of Museums with ticket to 1 euro.
