This initiative continues QM's annual tradition of marking International Museum Day by offering residents and visitors to Qatar complimentary access to its renowned network of cultural institutions. 'Amid ongoing changes in how we live, connect, and sustain our planet, museums must evolve to remain not only relevant, but essential,' said CEO of Qatar Museums, Mohammed Saad Al-Rumaihi. 'At Qatar Museums, we see this moment as an opportunity to reimagine our role—not just as custodians of heritage, but as active participants in shaping inclusive, resilient, and forward-looking communities.' Visitors will have the opportunity to explore the National Museum of Qatar, the Museum of Islamic Art, Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art, 3-2-1 Qatar Olympic Sports Museum, as well as all QM temporary exhibitions free of charge. International Museum Day is held annually on May 18 and is a global celebration of museums and their importance in promoting cultural understanding and exchange. This year's theme, The Future of Museums in Rapidly Changing Communities, focuses on how museums can navigate and contribute to a world undergoing profound social, technological, and environmental shifts. Residents and visitors are invited to experience the third edition of the Tasweer Photo Festival Qatar 2025 through eight compelling exhibitions across the city.
