OLYMPIC AGORA

As each edition of the Olympic Games takes place in an atmosphere of excellence, friendship and respect, they have an indisputable and profound cultural impact on the host nation and global society at large. The way in which the Games unite the world is unparalleled, a foundation upon which the Olympic Movement aims to build a better world, through the confluence of sport, culture and education.

In keeping with this spirit and the tradition of the Ancient Greek Agora, the Olympic Museum presents a unique cultural project: a vibrant public space where art, culture, creativity and the values associated with the Olympic Games can be expressed and explored.

"Commemorating the history and lasting cultural impact of the Olympic Movement on the world, the Olympic Agora programme serves as a permanent meeting place for exploring, cultivating and promoting the Olympic values. The Olympic Agora is a symbol of determination to overcome barriers, of international cooperation, of the power of sport and the arts to help us through times of crisis."
