Programme
The first route of the museum ship will be the Mediterranean, an area of millennia of history and exchange, which has always mobilized and nourished the inspiration of artists, and naturally invites intercultural dialogue.
Discover the programme of activities on the quayside and in the towns: performances, concerts, conferences, screenings, workshops, meetings and other events.

Past events
Amine Ait Hemou's 7tta programmed by Zakaria Allilech
A different kind of "anti-fashion" show, a collaborative, funny, joyful and subversive theatrical performance about the clothing industry, the relationship to fashion and the representation manifested by the famous Catwalk.
"Tetuan, Tetuán, تطوان" - Evening screening and reading with Adrian Schindler and Aicha Trinidad
The film trilogy "Tetuan, Tetuán, تطوان" examines the Spanish colonial past in Morocco and its impacts on Spanish society through a collaborative approach. Each part, co-developed with Moroccan and Spanish cultural partners, resignifies places such as the Plaça de Tetuan in Barcelona, the Tetuán de las Victorias district in Madrid and the Teatro Cine "Español" in Tétouan. The film screening will be followed by a discussion with researcher Aicha Trinidad Gououi, who was a guest chronicler during the filming of the second chapter, and who will read a text combining logbook, theoretical reflections and family stories to open the debate on the creative process and the methodological and ethical positions of the two artists.
"Home Forever" by Aymane Ait Yahya (Invited by Mouhawalat Collective)
In the act of creating and recreating his living spaces, Aymane Ait Yahya offers a performative meditation on the transitory nature of home, identity and the impact of our experiences on our sense of place and belonging.
