The Institute’s mission is to record, collect, document, valuate, preserve, interpret, study and present tangible and intangible heritage relating to the history of the City of Ljubljana and its wider surroundings from the Prehistoric Period until the present day, to conduct pedagogic, andragogic and promotional activities concerning the Institute’s operations, and related vocational training.
By holding exhibitions and compiling collections of museum objects, of archive and library materials and of other documentary materials, modern and contemporary works of art as well as contemporary art practices, the Institute provides access to public cultural goods and engages in international exchange.
The Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana will be a creative and modern institution with close links to its environment. By pursuing an internationally comparable programme, it will pave the way for new concepts of museology and gallery work.
By offering a diverse and accessible programme oriented to quality, we will outline creative approaches to upgrading existing professional standards in this field.
MGML will become a place of synergy and learning, a platform offering new insights into our past, present and future.
Our audiences and collaborators both locally and abroad will contribute to creating a museum and a gallery of the future.
