From April 18 to September 27, a wide array of events will take place across Lithuania: concerts, lectures, tours, exhibitions, virtual initiatives, and in-person gatherings. Events will be organized by region and calendar, moving in cycles from the Vilnius-Utena region to Panevėžys-Šiauliai, Telšiai-Klaipėda, Tauragė-Marijampolė, and Alytus-Kaunas regions—symbolically linking museums throughout Lithuania into a continuous cultural journey.
