Through a competitive grant process, the LKA has secured nearly 1 million euros to create the LKA Latvian Film Museum\u2019s new permanent exhibition, \u201cStories of Latvian Cinema,\u201d and the \u201cMirdza\u201d movie theater.<\/p>\n
With the help of this funding, it will be possible to create a modern, open, and accessible film museum where everyone can learn about Latvian cinema. According to research conducted by the LKA, people often face limitations in terms of accessibility and the availability of content in their daily lives. The project will make it possible to create not only physically accessible and user-friendly exhibition spaces and screening rooms, but also interesting, multifaceted content\u2014so that a wide variety of visitors can explore Latvian cinema in a way that suits them best. \u201cThanks to the funding awarded, the Latvian Film Museum will be able to live up to its name\u2014here, people of all ages, from children to adults, families, and seniors, will be able to explore Latvian cinema; in other words, the exhibition will be designed with everyone in mind. The \u201cMirdza\u201d cinema hall will also be a major asset, offering the opportunity to bring both new and forgotten films to life,\u201d notes museum director Inga P\u0113rkone-Redovi\u010da.<\/p>\n
Currently, the Latvian Film Museum is temporarily closed to visitors, but behind closed doors, a new exhibition titled \u201cStories of Latvian Cinema\u201d is taking shape: spaces are being set up, multimedia content is being created, and events are being planned that will take place even before the museum reopens. The new permanent exhibition \u201cStories of Latvian Cinema\u201d at 58a Miera Street is scheduled to open to the public in the fall of 2028.<\/p>\n
As part of the project, the Latvian Film Museum\u2019s content will also be integrated into the Latvian Museums mobile app. It will feature a digital audio guide, a virtual tour, and augmented reality film walks through the city. These walks will allow visitors to explore Latvian film locations in Riga, historic movie theaters, and cinema sites in Latvia\u2019s regions.<\/p>\n
The project \u201cInclusive and Accessible LKA Latvian Film Museum\u201d (No. 4.3.2.0\/1\/25\/A\/012) is co-financed by the European Union under Specific Support Objective 4.3.2, which aims to enhance the role of culture and tourism in economic development, social inclusion, and social innovation.
