A Maltese Cultural Centre.
As a Maltese person I am very proud of where I come from and I love my culture. Although Malta is a small country we have a very rich culture that not many know about in fact our culture that dates back centuries. As Maltese people it is our duty to keep our culture alive by showcasing it to the world every chance we get.
Two of the Cittaslow criteria speak about tradition, I would love it if we could open up a small cultural centre in my hometown of Naxxar or in another Maltese locality. In this cultural centre there could be classes and events can be planned on everything that has to do with the Maltese culture such as music, food, clothing, language, history, art, traditions, religion etc.
The Maltese cultural centre could make more opportunities for Maltese people to showcase their culture in order to keep it alive and in the same time learn more about their culture and where they came from while so they can feel more proud of our beautiful culture. On the other people who are not Maltese but live in Malta or are just visting our island can interact with Maltese people and learn about our colourful culture and get an idea what Malta and it’s people are all about.
