Abstract
The Plantin-Moretus Museum has always been a meeting point for very different people. We continue this tradition with the Culture Pals project. During one school year sixteen-year-olds from a college meet up with pupils from a school for mentally (and sometimes physically) disabled pupils. They see each other about seven times in or around the museum. The students are duos during the project. Both pupils learn from each other. Teachers, parents, and museum staff participate as well. All participants change and grow through the project. We try to expand the project and keep it made-to-measure at the same time. This ‘format’ can be used by other museums.
