A trained guide lead the participants, people suffering from cancer, through a journey of knowledge and discovery inside the museum. Patients, their families and caregivers share their experiences and emotions in front of masterpieces and, at the end, there is a laboratory where they can produce an artwork. Visits take place monthly, they are free and different every time as the guide sets customized and thematic itineraries. In this way, paintings become sliding doors on emotions and life. It is a way to reconnect to oneself and others.
