It has been a few weeks since the end of #MuseumWeek 2019: the first worldwide social media event that completed it’s sixth edition this year.

The goal of the event was to raise awareness on the core theme for this year: Women In Culture and, along with that, to encourage worldwide cultural institutions to create content and organize activities (online and offline) according to the various hashtags of the day.

As you probably already know, if you came across to our recent content, CloudGuide was one of the Digital Partners of the event!

We took this role very seriously and were excited for this new opportunity. We decided to involve our community by proposing to our collaborating museums, art galleries and various cultural sites to share with us material related to the different themes of the day. Since we have an amazing community the response rate was very positive: over 40 cultural institutions decided to take part in the event with us.

With the large amount of content that received we were able to create 7 very special guides (one for each day) on the CloudGuide app and we produced over 150 Tweets and Facebook posts and almost 200 Instagram posts (between feeds and stories).

Through this fantastic experience CloudGuide has reinforced its relationships with it’s current collaborating institutions, as well as welcomed many new members. We discovered many stories, we came across different and inspiring women from all over the world and, most importantly, we helped #MuseumWeek by spreading culture and reaching out to audiences from around the world.

Looking (already) forward to the next edition we invite all the cultural institutions and all the museum lovers across the planet to keep the spirit alive, by continuing to organize events throughout the year and to highlight the stories of Women in culture of yesterday, today and tomorrow.
