For International Museum Week, Pera Museum is organising a free exhibition tour for a limited number of participants with the curators Serdar Darendeliler and Refik Akyüz for the exhibition Istanbuls Today, which offers a comprehensive look into contemporary visual narratives from various Istanbuls that are shaped and experienced concurrently with the hope of creating a layered and innovative view of Istanbul's present.

The free guided tour is in Turkish. Museum entrance tickets must be purchased separately. Our quota is limited. To join the tour, you can make a reservation via resepsiyon@peramuzesi.org.tr e-mail address.
