The project "The Floor is yours" is a two-year public programme resulting from the collaboration between Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam (lead partner), MUseum MOderner Kunst Foundation Ludwig, Vienna, and Mart, Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Trento and Rovereto. 

The title “The Floor is yours” is itself a stance: the museums in the network give the floor to the public, fostering new perspectives on the museum and pursuing real social inclusion. What we want to create is a reversal of perspective: different audiences are not simply invited to come to the museum to experience its narratives, but are involved in the creation of new stories.The objectives of the project are therefore to experiment new processes of collaboration with some of the social actors in the area and to build a network capable of fostering the dissemination of good practices.

The local partners of the Mart are Comunità La Foresta and LABA.
A group of LABA students will be involved in the planning of activities aimed at young audiences and will participate in a week-long residency designed to stimulate exchange and comparison between the three museums. The Mart will send the students in residence to Rotterdam and will host the residency of the Mumok partner group in Rovereto. The Viennese museum, on the other hand, will host the residency of the partner group of the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen. At the end of the two-year period, a concluding seminar will be organised by the Rotterdam museum, the European project leader, with the aim of sharing the results with a wider public.
