The MSK will soon have two reasons to throw a party in Ghent. The first is to mark its 225 years of existence - making it Belgium’s oldest museum. And the second is to honour the 125th anniversary of the Friends of the Museum. Starting on 2 September, both of these milestones will be celebrated with a year full of cultural festivities.

The MSK is launching Belgium’s first LGBTQ+ tour through the works in its collection. Moving through the tour, the exhibition guide reveals some of the untold stories that have remained hidden until now - despite being on full view in the galleries.
