During the Night of the Museums 2014, which idea involves all European Museums, the State Tactile Museum Omero presents the tactile exhibition “Senses in draping – sculptural structures.”

These are works on the theme of the plastic drape, created by students of the Academy of Fine Arts in Macerata in the years 2012 – 2013. The materials used are of the most varied. The works will be explored tactilely, to understand the nuances and, most of all, to access the multisensory in Museum Omero.
