What began as a welcome day for institutions recently incorporated into the network quickly transformed into a space of communion and mutual recognition.<\/p>\n<p>Through a virtual activity, participants then reflected on the following statement: &ldquo;If Don Bosco were to visit our museum, which object or room in the museum would make him smile?&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Our heritage comes to life when young people inhabit it,&rdquo; said Cintia Navas, from Argentina, summing up the sentiment of a network that sees the museum not as a repository of objects, but as an educational meeting place.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Experiences that weave the global network<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Through an evocative activity, participants reflected on which corners of their museums would make Don Bosco smile today. This exercise brought various experiences to light:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Argentina: Bel&eacute;n Boetto (Buenos Aires<\/strong>) highlighted work with photographic and documentary heritage as a bridge between the museum and the parish community; whilst Carlos Martinic (Misi&oacute;n de la Candelaria) shared how the museum&rsquo;s heritage brings the dreams of the Saint of Youth to life.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Italy:<\/strong> <strong>Diego Occhiena<\/strong> presented the work of the &ldquo;Mamma Margherita&rdquo; Museum in Capriglio, which preserves the memory of the mother of the Founder of the Salesians, St John Bosco.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brazil:<\/strong> <strong>Marcos Lima<\/strong> offered an overview of the richness and diversity of museum practices in the Brazilian context.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>A shared vision: educating through memory<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Beyond geographical diversity, the dialogue revealed that all the centres share a single vision: to educate, evangelise and accompany the younger generations through beauty and history.<\/p>\n<p>The day concluded with a symbolic gesture in which each participant displayed an object from their desk, representing their daily commitment to continuing to build the network&rsquo;s future together.<\/p>\n<p>The final message was clear: the network of Salesian museums not only preserves the past, but strides confidently towards the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The meeting, convened by the Advisory Team for the Museums of the Salesian Missions, led by Fr Reginaldo
