Adoración Peñas, councilor of IU-Greens of Lorca has criticized that, with only four days to the celebration of "The Night of the Museums", there is no reference in the municipal web, and not even the Event by the councilman of culture.

Peñas recalls that International Museum Day has been celebrated around the world since 1977. Since then, many other European cities have joined the initiative of the Council of Europe, joining the commemorative events of the Council of Europe. ICOM (International Council of Museums) within the International Day of these important cultural entities.

The mayor says that this year the night of May 20, museums from all over Europe will open their doors and illuminate the cultural panorama of our old continent.

He has also set an example to municipalities such as Cartagena, which have a website exclusively for the promotion of this event, which details a wide range of activities and an exemplary detail of its culture and leisure programming, complementary to The temporary and permanent exhibitions of museums.

From IU-Greens say that this event offers museums and their professionals the opportunity to get closer to the public and society and make them aware of the changes that museums develop since they are "an institution at the service of society and its development."

In "The Night of Museums", the cities open their doors to culture and art, allowing a free visit of all their museum spaces, well into the night.

Peñas has emphasized that our municipality has a very interesting museum offer and the promotion of this event with sufficient time, and with the dedication and interest necessary, would imply an important incentive for the promotion and the tourist, cultural and even economic development of Lorca, so he says he does not find any justification so that four days before the event has not even been publicly presented or has had the slightest diffusion.

Also, from the formation of the left, they warn of the lack of interest on the part of the PP for the culture, putting like example the Museum of the Mining of Almendricos, project forgotten in spite of its approval in municipal plenaries and they demand to the councilman of culture that focuses in Its functions and do not lose to the city of Lorca opportunities like this that only report benefits at all levels.
