Antiquarium comunale di Agropoli

The municipal administration of Agropoli, with the establishment of the City Arts Palace, has taken on a great responsibility. The exhibition structure dedicated to art, archaeology, and more generally, culture, has been conceived in a rational and innovative way with the main aim of offering the local community a museum, virtual for the art section and documentary for the part related to the oldest local history. A agile and flexible structure designed for teaching and education on art topics, open to a series of experiments and workshops, which, in an interactive way, can allow the deepening of a series of paths. Today, this complex project inaugurates the exhibition space, the conference room, and the section aimed at enhancing the territory and its oldest and most documented signs of occupation. The setup promoted in collaboration with the Superintendence for Archeological Heritage of the Provinces of Salerno, Avellino, Caserta, and Benevento, was curated by the archaeologist Laura Del Verme and coordinated by the director of the Paestum Museum, Marina Cipriani.

The event fits into a broader framework of collaboration, promotion, and enhancement of cultural tourism and the off-season presence decongestion that the Municipality has started, together with the local Superintendence, since the establishment of the current administrative body. From this year, the Palace will also be included in the ArteCard route.
