HoASA (The History of Art and Fine Arts’ Students Association) and FAA Flimkien Ghal Ambjent Ahjar, with the support of Department of History of Art – University of Malta, have come together to present the symposium titled “Maltese National Heritage at Risk”. This event aims at bringing awareness to students, academics, general public and the media about the lack of cultural appreciation in the Maltese Islands whilst also assessing its value. There will be 4 speakers, including three academics (University of Malta, University of San Diego, USA) who will be discussing four different themes, which are:

1. Architectural preservation (Speaker: Professor Conrad Thake)
2. Assessment of the importance given to modern and contemporary works of art in Malta (Dr Giuseppe Schembri Bonaci)
3. The economic value of artistic heritage (Professor Andrew Narwold)
4. Neglect of works of art in the Maltese Islands (Giulia Privitelli and HoASA)

This will be followed by an open-mic debate where anyone who wishes may voice his opinions, and a reception.

The price for this symposium is €3 for students and €5 for the general public, and may be booked through https://ticketengine.faa.org.mt/. For further information please contact our Facebook page, or FAA Flimkien Ghal Ambjent Ahjar on 20106428 or faa.org.mt. Early booking is highly recommended as there is limited seating available.
