We couldn’t resist spreading the word about this most excellent idea from most radical dudes and dudettes: MotelX and Museu Arte Antiga. Tomorrow is your last day to register for the Sept. 5 Hell Tour. Without further ado.:
NIGHTMARE AT THE MUSEUM
At midnight and with a descent into art hell: this is how it will all start at the 13th edition of the Lisbon International Horror Film Festival. Before taking Cinema São Jorge by storm from 10 to 15 September, MOTELX kicks off in Warm-Up mode on 5 September with an unprecedented midnight visit to the National Museum of Ancient Art’s most terrifying artwork.
31 strangers meet at midnight behind the closed doors of a vast and silent museum. Their aim: to explore hell in art. This could be the beginning of another horror movie but it’s in fact the starting point of the 13th edition of MOTELX, which has joined forces with Portugal’s National Museum of Ancient Art (MNAA) to offer a unique experience to 31 participants on the night of 5 to 6 September.
The partnership between MOTELX and MNAA also contemplates an activity for children: “Lurking Creatures”, a game/tour of the Museum for 13 children aged between 6 and 12 (15 September, 11h30).
Registrations for this free, one-off guided tour are open from 9am on Friday, 2 August, and should be done via the email inscricoes@motelx.org (one per email).
