The MAMT- Mediterranean Museum of Art, Music and Traditions is an institution created by the Fondazione Mediterraneo with the aim “to experience” in an interactive way, the positive emotions of Our Sea through Arts, Music and Traditions. The MAMT is one of the most important initiatives of Fondazione Mediterraneo: an active space created in order to let communicate Arts, Music and Traditions of the Mediterranean contemporary society. The awareness of a past full of ancient traditions is the base for the construction of a rational and connected humanity: the vastness of the Mediterranean area collects together the responsibility, the hard work and intelligence with the ability to share spaces and cultures. Today, more than ever, the sense of future is given by the awareness of the sorrow, of the conflicts and at the same time by the ability to share joys and bond.
Art and Music are since ever the tool of communication and sharing of the humanity that, in a particular “Mediterranean” path, allows us to overtake the violence of the human being that showed itself in his greater brutality in countries as Bosnia, Palestine, Syria and other places: as testify of this there are Bosnia, in order not to forget and Suffering and Hope in the world, exhibitions of the museum.

At the same time there are symbols inviting to meeting and hope appear in lands of desolation and Hush: The Ferrigno Nativity Scene, the exhibition a Sea, three Faiths, the Peace and the Last Neapolitan Supper are part of the Museum.
Near the Totem of Peace and other works by Mario Molinari, sculptor of the color, accompanies the lonely journey of freedom, the Dreamlike World of John Crown and the desire of participation and recognition of the role of women in the Mediterranean in the exhibition “Breaking the Veils, women artists of Islamic World”.

The section dedicated to Pino Daniele has a particular meaning.
The warm of the Mediterranean human nature and the awareness of the necessity to keep track, the the wealth and the fertility find in the “Section Architecture” – with the Associated presences of Alvaro Siza, Ciamarra Picas, Vittorio Di Pace, Nicola Pagliara, Marco Introini and others - and in the Voices of the Migrants and other strong point.

Their names are Nazifa Mersa Hussein, Yuliya Hramika and Halyna Khrystiushina, they all share the same dream of peace.
From Afghanistan to Ukraine to Belarus, their testimonies bring women a message of hope and an invitation to welcome.
With the same invitation, the presentation of the latest book "Lucciole d'Inverno" by Elena Rossi (Armando Curcio Editore) opened at the Museum of Peace, where the protagonists are women and their ability to generate a chain of solidarity.
"We welcome literature, poetry, art, the sense of beauty and the practical sense of the female universe to counter the noise and darkness of contemporary history," said musician Eugenio Bennato, opening the meeting moderated by Michele Capasso, President of the Fondazione Mediterraneo, which hosted the voices and stories of the refugees of the "Women for Peace" Association, coordinated by President Volha Marozava and the Publisher and Ceo of RID 96.8 FM (Radio Incontro Donna) Michelle Marie Castielllo. "Women today are the main actors in saving the earth and curing peace," stressed President Capasso. "It is a deep joy to be welcomed in this prestigious venue on the occasion of World Refugee Day, which invites us to a collective reflection on those who, because of wars, have extinguished and continue to extinguish lives and dreams," said Elena Rossi. "Women united by their strength can contribute to bringing peace to the world. It is precisely on this, on women's unity, that the daily work and commitment of our radio station, RID 96.8 FM, is based. And this is the message we want to share on this Day where our thoughts go out to the people suffering from wars around the world," added Michelle Marie Castiello.
"Refugee denotes a state of fragility where you are not at fault, you have no power to change anything in your country of origin, you are forced to flee and abandon it. By starting from scratch you learn to walk like a child in your new environment. We at DFP stand by these people to give them the opportunity of a new life," said Volha Marozava). Screened was the video 'Mother Earth', edited by Vittorio Pavoncello from the poem of the same name by Rossi dedicated to the open drama of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. The text, already winner of the Capitolino d'Oro Prize for Poetry in 2023, tells of the young refugees of Donne for Peace who became the first actresses of the '"Theater4Inclusion" company.
