At the Museum Series
Sakıp Sabancı Museum transcends the traditional roles of exhibiting and preserving cultural heritage, advancing innovative programmes that extend this legacy to broader audiences and seamlessly integrate it into contemporary life. Through the At the Museum series, SSM redefines the boundaries of a conventional exhibition space, transforming into a vibrant and dynamic cultural hub where heritage is not merely observed but actively experienced, and learning becomes a captivating, engaging process. With this visionary approach, the museum continues to enrich and elevate the landscape of museology in Turkey.
STAGE AT THE MUSEUM
Now in its eighth year in 2024, Stage at the Museum — realised with the support of the Sabancı Foundation — unfolds around a meticulously curated theme each season. Under the discerning eye of its artistic director, the programme features an array of theatrical productions, performances, creative workshops, and specially tailored plays for children and infants. Spread throughout the museum’s diverse spaces, these events immerse visitors in moments of artistic splendour, offering experiences that are both refined and memorable.
SOIRÉE AT THE MUSEUM
During the balmy summer months, Soirée at the Museum graces the Fıstıklı Terrace, where the Bosphorus provides a breathtaking backdrop for open-air cinema screenings, crafting unforgettable evenings. In winter, cinema lovers are invited to curated film screenings inspired by temporary exhibitions. Set within the museum’s evocative spaces and shaped around bespoke themes, these soirées bring together cinephiles for an intimate and enriching cultural experience.
YOGA AT THE MUSEUM
For over a decade, Yoga at the Museum has been an enduring collaboration between Sakıp Sabancı Museum and Cihangir Yoga. Held throughout the summer on the Fıstıklı Terrace, these meditation and yoga sessions offer participants an unparalleled opportunity to rejuvenate both body and mind amidst the serene beauty of the Bosphorus. Beloved by yoga enthusiasts, this unique experience remains a haven for tranquillity and mindfulness.
