In this engaging session, Dr. Dijana will introduce the unique museum set within a 900-year-old abbey in Slovenia , the country’s only national museum dedicated to safeguarding movable sacral heritage. Her session will explore how museums can make medieval manuscripts, monastic life, and Christian art more accessible and engaging, especially for younger audiences. Drawing from her professional experience, she will discuss the changing profile of museum visitors, innovative approaches to audience engagement, and the creation of inclusive and meaningful museum programs.
