of a modern virtual museum and/or digital exhibition space. It will serve the Municipality both alongside the physical display of various exhibits and through their exclusively digital presentation, where the absence of suitable physical infrastructure makes this necessary.
Expected benefits:
The aim of the project is to highlight and promote the culture of the Municipality of Alimos, so that:
- the general public can get to know and admire important works of art through digital reproduction, strengthening the cultural policy of the Municipality of Alimos and contributing to the intellectual and emotional development of users,
- access to the unique world of art and culture is made easier for people with disabilities, through interactive digital programmes and the use of virtual reality, giving them the possibility to interact, take guided tours and “wander” among works of art and cultural achievements of high value,
- young people are given the opportunity to come into contact with art and culture, with incentives to use technologies and media they already know, such as computers and smartphones, and through them to develop their knowledge and enjoy themselves,
- the tourist promotion of the Municipality is strengthened, by giving a large number of visitors digital access to local culture.
