About

Heritage Malta opens the doors of its Digitisation Unit at its Bighi head office in Kalkara for a hands-on look at how the organisation captures, documents and safeguards Malta's cultural heritage. Visitors get to see the cutting-edge scanning and imaging equipment used to digitise museum collections and archives, with staff on hand to explain the process.

The session is open to children aged 8 and over, who must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, and is free to attend. Three short sessions run back to back on the morning of the visit.
