Music Gallery is the first exhibition dedicated to music in Romania

Created by the team behind Jazz in the Park, together with industry specialists, the exhibition aims to present music in a different form—an interactive and immersive one. You discover the social and historical context of music, learn what happens behind the scenes, and get to know the professions behind the stage. You leave with a new perspective: music as hobby, art, and job. A place that will bring you closer to music.

The exhibition was inaugurated in March 2023 at the Art Museum in Cluj-Napoca

For one month, the public discovered and interacted with music through installations and an associated program: concerts, guitar, piano, and percussion workshops for children and adults. Later, the exhibition was presented for one month at the Braunstein Palace in Iași.

Backstage Pass was the exhibition's theme in 2024

In 2024, the exhibition’s theme was “Backstage Pass”. The second edition brought music from the perspective of artists and the behind-the-scenes universe. As a first for the exhibition, we integrated a “listening bar” into a museum space and organized guided tours, an audio equipment fair, concerts, and workshops for children and adults.

Music accompanies us every day and shapes our culture.

Music Gallery is an exhibition project in motion. With each edition, the content is updated and expanded. It is not a permanent exhibition; we announce appearances on our website and social networks. Most often you can find us in Cluj-Napoca, with occasional appearances in other cities as well.
