Free admission to exhibitions, guided tours and activities dedicated to contemporary art: these are the opportunities available to University of Insubria students through the “Amici del MA*GA Young” membership card, offered free of charge as part of a project aimed at encouraging young people to participate in the cultural life of the local area.

The initiative provides 1,000 free membership cards, valid for one year, allowing students to visit exhibitions at the MA*GA Museum in Gallarate and take part in guided tours, workshops and cultural events. Upcoming exhibitions include “Jago. Corpi esposti”, running from November 15, 2026, to April 4, 2027.

The museum thus becomes not only an exhibition venue, but also a place for meeting, studying and participating in cultural activities, thanks to its dedicated study areas, library and café. The aim is to bring young people closer to contemporary art while creating new opportunities for discussion and social interaction.

The free membership initiative is part of the project “Il gioco del mondo. Connessioni tra cultura, cittadinanza e territori”, funded by Regione Lombardia through the third edition of the “Giovani Smart” call for proposals. The project is coordinated by the MA*GA Museum in collaboration with the University of Insubria, LIUC – Università Cattaneo, CSV Insubria and the Scuola di Restauro di Botticino.
