"We lived with a decade of delay, in our country, still an ideological debate on the possibility of collaboration between public and private in the protection, enhancement, management of cultural heritage" Dario Franceschini, Minister of Cultural Heritage and Activities.

For the Fratelli Cozzi Museum it was an honour to be counted together with international names such as American Express, Ikea Museum, Nestlè. The comparison with big names and institutional contexts is fundamental for us in our growth path. Patronage is also this: getting out of one's own spheres of knowledge to broaden one's daily life with new contaminations.

We want to thank all those who supported the candidacy of the Fratelli Cozzi Museum.
