museenkoeln IN THE BOX
museenkoeln IN DER BOX brings museums to the people of Cologne and the surrounding region. A mobile museum – a bus full of objects, replicas, and photos, equipped with exhibition and communication technology – travels directly to schools, senior centers, and other institutions in Cologne's neighborhoods.
A modular exhibition architecture was developed for museenkoeln IN DER BOX that can be used flexibly depending on the location. The objects on display, which revolve around the theme of “values,” invite dialogue and offer a variety of references to the participants' lives: What is valuable to me and why? What values do we share as a society?
Starting in spring 2026, we will be touring Cologne's neighborhoods with the new exhibition “Wert-voll: Wie Werte uns verbinden” (Valuable: How Values Connect Us). Social institutions such as cultural centers or community centers in Cologne are eligible to participate.
Requirements for participation are:
- A cooperation with at least two other institutions in your neighborhood, e.g., schools, youth or senior centers
- Sufficient space for setting up the mobile exhibition in a lockable room
- Support for our concept from “local experts” – we want to take into account and share as many perspectives as possible.
