Outreach
Focus Area
One of the Museum's most important tasks is to disseminate its subject matter. In fact, most of the work carried out serves this very purpose; exhibitions, publications, and even educational programs aim to share our work with society.
Through conferences, articles in magazines, and participation in various forums, the Museum also aims to disseminate our knowledge about the trade and industry of Salamanca in its historical context.
