Centro Pecci is actively committed to promoting cultural participation for everyone. By continuously identifying and removing cultural, physical, sensory, and cognitive barriers—and by developing accessibility programs—Centro Pecci supports active engagement from all communities.
Thanks to a broad accessibility project funded by the PNRR and developed in collaboration with local organizations and associations, the museum’s physical, sensory, and cognitive barriers have been mapped and reduced.
New tools and resources for planning your visit are available online on this page.
Inside the museum, maps, podcasts, videos, plain language captions, and sensory supports allow each visitor to explore the permanent collection independently, with multiple options for engaging with the content.
