Amb l’arribada del mes de setembre i l’inici del curs, L’ETNO presenta dues noves propostes per famílies i col·legis derivats de la nova exposició permanent No és fàcil ser valencià/na. 

Els projectes per famílies són dos: ETNOVIATGE i BUSCA L’ETNO. El primer proposa un etnoviatge en la secció de Ciutat (Ciutat: Global – Local) de la mostra permanent del museu, l’objectiu de la qual és que estes famílies puguen aprofundir i valorar/comentar entre pares i fills els continguts de la mostra sense necessitat de guia o monitor/a. Es tracta d’una guia que proposa diferents activitats sobre el fenòmen urbà. En ella les famílies desevoluparan exercicis i jocs sobre la mobilitat urbana, els edificis singulars, la forma de la ciutat antiga i el seu reflexe en la moderna, la festa urbana, les noves formes de consum o de treball, així com la diversitat cultural que aporten les persones que venen de fora.

ETNOVIATGE està pensat per famílies amb xiquets i xiquetes de 6 a 11 anys que puguen visitar i recórrer de forma autònoma (visita lliure) esta secció de l’exposició, i està organitzat amb exercicis amb diferents graus de dificultat segons l’edat. La guia pot completar-se durant la visita, en casa, o en una sala de descans que L’ETNO ha posat en marxa este estiu destinada al descans i la lectura, ubicada al final de la secció de la Ciutat.   

BUSCA L’ETNO és un joc en el què cal trobar a L’ETNO (mascota del museu) entre les diferents vitrines de tota l’exposició permanent. Una de les modificacions introduïdes fa dos anys amb la renovació de la mostra permanent del museu fou la instal·lació de vitrines menudes a baixa alçada dirigides a un públic més menut (menor a 6 anys). Estes vitrines mostren amb objectes (joguets) cadascun dels continguts de l’exposició, però amb una iconografia i un llenguatge pensat per xiquets. El joc proposa el repte per famílies de trobar la nostra mascota a llarg de l’exposició. 

Amb estes novetats, L’ETNO amplia la seua oferta per a públic familiar i proporciona recursos per a que les famílies puguen gaudir de la mostra de forma autònoma i puguen utilitzar el museu com un recurs per l’oci familiar.  

Durant els caps de setmana L’ETNO continua oferint les seues visites guiades realitzades pels conservadors del museu a les mostres temporals i permanents (per adults) i tallers de caràcter etnològic per xiquets i xiquetes. 

L’oferta per centres educatius i associacions es conforma amb: El joc de l’horta, joc de taula sobre l’ús de l’aigua dirigit a grups d'Educació Primària; De cap a peus, taller sobre indumentària tradicional, dirigit a grups d'Educació Primària i 1er cicle de l’ESO; Faltar o morir, projecte educatiu que reflexiona sobre la mort sorgit de l’exposició Faltar o morir. Un recorregut per l’absència produïda pel museu en l’any 2020, dirigit a grups d'Educació Primària, ESO i Batxillerat.

Com tots els anys, en arribar la tardor, L’ETNO posarà en marxa 7ena edició d’ESPANTA LA POR, projecte de recuperació de l’imaginari tradicional sobre la por, dirigit a grups d'Educació infantil i Primària. 

Així mateix, el museu continuarà amb els seus programes de salut i benestar: Caixa dels records, memòries d’una vida projecte dirigit persones amb demència en estat inicial, i L’ETN(H)OSPITAL, projecte en qual el museu proporciona recursos educatius pels xiquets i xiquetes ingressats en la Unitat Pediàtrica de l’Hospital Doctor Peset (UPH Peset) per millorar el seu estat emocional i afectiu
 

The network of Museum Itineraries in a gender perspective incorporates the gender perspective into the cultural visit to the museum. A perspective that studies the cultural and social constructions that are specific to men and women, that which identifies the feminine and the masculine. This network offers visitors to the participating museums a different reading of the collections on display, with the aim of promoting gender equality in the face of diversity. 

L'ETNO, Museu Valencià d'Etnologia has developed a gender itinerary or tour, selecting a set of pieces and spaces from its permanent collection that show significant interest in relation to gender representations. Visitors can consult and download the information and material necessary to follow the proposed routes at www.relecturas.es. 

These itineraries do not focus exclusively on the figure of women, but also explore representations of men and masculinity, as well as the presence of transgender identities, third genders or alternative genders to the Western dual system of sex/gender. They also focus on aspects such as gender ideology and systems, stereotypes and roles, relations between spaces, history and gender, etc. 

Some of the objectives of the Relecturas network are to contribute to the knowledge and dissemination of Valencian cultural heritage, to promote intercultural dialogue, to strengthen links between Valencian museums, and to boost cultural tourism. It also seeks to teach values of respect, coexistence and tolerance in order to achieve real and effective equality between women and men.

“El Maestrat Filmat” is a audiovisual project that brings to the present the different views that have been responsible for immortalizing this territory of inland Castelló (the north part of the Valencian country) throughout the last century. A proposal that aims to reflect on the visual imagery of this eminently rural territory. During the project, more than 20 film archive collections from towns such as Albocàsser, Benassal, Catí or Ares del Maestrat have been located and preserved.

This exhibition proposal is an adaptation of this documentary project. In the first part of the visit, the construction of the archive is presented. A constellation of images that show its origin, scope and context of creation, each one with its own characteristics. Discovering these collections will help us rethink their mere existence and reproduction, as well as their importance as documentary (intangible) heritage. Inside we can enjoy an audiovisual installation, a reconstruction of the interactive web documentary “El Maestrat Filmat-La Memòria Rescatada”.

The exhibition focuses on the origins, history and social relevance of the current Levante UD football club, one of the classic clubs of the city of València. 

The exhibition will deal with some of the following topics:
- The social and political reality of the maritime settlements at that time.
- Catholic trade unionism and the Catholic circles created to counteract the influence of the class unions. In particular, it focuses on the Patronato de la Juventud Obrera.
- The reasons for the forced merger of Levante UD.
- The problems betwenn the two teams' supporters and players. 
- The "dance" of symbology: colours, shields, kits.

Through the exhibition, objects from the L'ETNO clothing collection (Casa Insa) are presented in dialogue with others that are part of the festival in different valencian towns. The main objectives of the project are:

• To value the work of L'ETNO in the recovery, conservation and restoration of the Casa Insa clothing collection.
• Help the museum visitor understanding how the Corpus Christi festival was a "performance" in which the whole society participated.
• To analyze the iconography that has configured one of the main Valencian traditions.

Between 2 October and 13 November there will be guided tours on Sundays at 11:30 a.m. by the exhibition curators. Languages: Spanish and Valencian.

Exhibition related to the TV show "Tresors amb història".

This is the exhibition production linked to the TV show “Tresors amb Història”, broacasted by the Valencian Public Television, À Punt. The exhibition shows the selection of the one hundred objects that have been appearing during the broadcast of the program. The objects tell daily stories of Valencian men and women and are a sample of our history in the last century. With this project, L'ETNO proposes to reflect into the importance of material culture as a container of memory and an element capable of reflecting personal or collective identity.

TRESORS AMB HISTÒRIA has been produced by L'ETNO in collaboration with the Institut Valencià de Cultura, À Punt and the production companies Sunrise and El Terrat (The Mediapro Studio). It will remain open to the public until the 29th of May, and from June 15 it can be visited at the Museum of Fine Arts in the city of Castelló.
 

The main objective of this exhibition project is to offer a didactic and cross-sectional vision of the material culture of the Franco dictatorship. It proposes an analysis of the mechanisms that the dictatorship used to rewrite the history and acquire legitimacy.

The protagonists of the exhibition are the objects that allow to analyze the omnipresence of the symbols and slogans of a totalitarian regime in everyday life, in education at schools or in gender roles and private and public settings. The material culture of Francoism is a paradigmatic example of the policies of doctrine, censorship and repression that characterize the great machinery that the Francoist military regime will establish in Spain.

Twelve collections have been selected, grouped according to some of the most significant uses in the history of the medium: scientific photography in the ethnography section, institutional photography, photography by professionals, photography with a personal, documentary and informative ambition, and domestic and family photography, focusing on the social habits that impregnate the materiality of the photographic object. At the same time, the aim is to reflect on some ideas that cross the photographic medium, such as memory, the archive and an approach based on the context in which the images were created.
 
Photographs have been explained as proof and witness of the past, as an aesthetic expression of subjectivity and as a tool of representation, but also, as the sociologist Pierre Bourdieu points out, they are a process and a practice, a way of relating. 
 
En el recorrido planteado, cada colección nos muestra una visión particular y al tiempo dialoga con las otras. Cada una, desde su posición, va trenzando ese tejido compartido forma en forma de universo de imágenes que entendemos como memoria visual.

In order to make the experience of the visit or workshop as satisfactory and profitable as possible, it is recommended that the following indications be taken into account:
