reviveu-REvivEU is a project financed by the EU in the framework of the European Year of Cultural Heritage. The objective is to realize a series of pop-up exhibitions across 2019 in various European cities, to celebrate the diversity of European cultural heritage and to empower citizens in a more participative approach to cultural heritage. The exhibitions will be co-created joining institutional cultural heritage with crowdsourced stories and personal items. Each exhibition will be mixed physical-digital and highly interactive for the visitors, including a contest for the best cultural items presented in the exhibitions. The most voted crowdsourced item in each city will grant the holder a trip to Brussels for participating in the final event of REvivEU.
