The Vallhonrat de Rubí Ethnographic Museum Foundation presents a book in January 2021 that covers the creation of the museum, the history of the family legacy and gives voice to the world of local collecting.
The director of the Foundation, Mr. Pere Vallhonrat Guiu, presents the book History of the Vallhonrat Ethnographic Museum of Rubí and the world of collecting, art and culture of Rubí through its people , which is divided into two parts: the first, tells the story of the Vallhonrat lineage, the creation of the Museum, reviews some of the pieces exhibited in the eight rooms that make up it and closes with a collection of the most outstanding events. A friendly look at the founders of the Museum and the legacy that after sixty years, has become a cultural reference in the Vallhonrat region and has been recognized with the Creu de Sant Jordi 2019 by the Generalitat of Catalonia.
The second part gives prominence to the world of local collecting, through the testimony of people from Rubin who have made a hobby into a small world.
The book also wanted to dedicate a space to the students of the educational centers who annually make guided visits to the Museum and work on the Educational Files prepared for each school stage, with a drawing contest that rewards the artistic and personal vision that this experience has transmitted to them. The winning drawings and the finalists are also part of this book.
