PRESS RELEASE 23.08.23

The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation, UNESCO, has just
granted its patronage to maltabiennale.art, which will be held in Malta for the first time in the
coming year. UNESCO’s patronage is considered as a high form of recognition for this art
festival, which while still its infancy, has already garnered a strong and encouraging global
response from artists, and is clearly set to become the focal cultural event of 2024 in Malta.
