In a post on his Facebook page, the minister of cultural heritage, Alberto Bonisoli, announced a number of changes to museum access. In particular, a total of twenty days of free admission each year will be established in all museums, divided as follows: one week of free admission everywhere (to March 2019), six Sundays of free admission (from October to March), and eight days of free admission left to the discretion of the directors of individual museums, who will be able to decide them without calendar limits. Again, directors will have the power to establish time slots that will allow the public to enter without paying a ticket.
Then there are novelties affecting young people: while admission will continue to remain free for the under-18s, 18- to 25-year-olds will be able to enter all state museums paying only 2 euros. “We want to change things for the better,” said the minister, “we need to increase the hunger for culture in young people.”
