The Enchanted Castle intends to dedicate an entire floor of the Rivoli Castle to non-adults. Recognizing children and young people as 'ideal visitors' of these spaces, the project allows the rest of the public to experience an exhibition designed for their eyes, minds, and hearts, thus creating a 're-enchanted' museum. In this sense, it is an innovative project that transforms the Museum into an experiential and inclusive pedagogical gym and an active citizenship school. Born from the collaboration between the Education Department and a team of teachers, the project is based on a participatory approach of co-creating the museum path with the users themselves, especially children and teenagers. For the first time, the narrative around the artworks will be a work in progress designed and built together with a group of Rivoli youngsters aged between 6 and 17 years.
The Enchanted Castle is inspired by the idea of a museum agora, a place of meeting and confrontation where art is at the center of a process of education and growth that involves the entire community. The project aims to be an opportunity, on the fortieth anniversary of the Rivoli Castle, to re-actualize the institutional mission of the Museum to "promote the knowledge of contemporary art" through the direct involvement of the future public to foster the social and civil growth process of individuals and the territory.
Paola Zanini, Head of the Museum's Education Department, states: "The Enchanted Castle is an opportunity to promote a sense of belonging to the Museum among young people, a tool to activate creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and the ability to face the unexpected. The innovative approach proposed by The Enchanted Castle fully captures the spirit with which the Education Department has worked since the opening of the Museum through active participation and sharing of projects, which have always been the guiding principles of our work."
