The Flint Institute of Arts will join a worldwide community of museums on May 18 to celebrate ICOM's International Museums Day. This year's theme will be "Museums for a sustainable society." The theme recognizes the role of museums in raising public awareness about the need for a society that is less wasteful, more cooperative, and uses resources in a way that respects living systems.
By bringing museums to the forefront of this model of a sustainable society, the International Museum Day theme aims to foster awareness among the whole society about the current consequences of human action in our planet and the absolute necessity of changing its economic and social model.
To mark the occasion, the FIA will offer free admission to the galleries and special exhibitions. The FIA museum shop will offer members a 20% discount and non-members a 10% discount. The Palette café will offer a 10% discount to all patrons.
