International Museum Day

As usual, the MMUC and the Vallhonrat Museum collaborate in the celebration of International Museum Day (IMD).

This year, under the motto Museums uniting a divided world, the Vallhonrat Museum will lend to exhibit from May 16 to 24, 2026 in the hall of the Municipal Museum better known as Castell Ecomuseu Urbà a poorly polished white marble mortar from the 19th century with the wooden stick that was used to grind food. A mortar has been chosen as an object of traditional use since it represents the daily life of a culture, showing that although the contexts are different, human needs are common such as eating, working, cooking, caring.

Story set to music for Earth Day

On Saturday, April 25, to commemorate Earth Day in Rubí, we will take a walk through the museum explaining and seeing objects related to the earth, such as a laundry room, a water tower, farmer’s tools, an orange tree, a winery, olive trees, among others. At the end, a story set to music by the earth and nature awaits us by Xavi Demelo. The Generous Tree is an oral narrative with many readings. Apart from the environmental meaning, it contains a great metaphor, which can be the exploitation of the most disadvantaged human being by more powerful ones such as gender, diversity, anti-racism, etc. The activity is seasoned with constant touches of humor that are very close to the joke and also very current. Start time: 11am. End time: 1:00 p.m.
