Valletta museums attract 10,000 visitors in one night
Over 10,000 people visited Heritage Malta museums and sites in Valletta that were opened free of charge for Notte Bianca last Saturday, Heritage Malta said. The most popular venue was the National Museum of Archaeology, which was visited by almost 4,000, while the Palace Armoury attracted nearly 3,500 visitors. The National Museum of Fine Arts was visited by over 1,500 persons.
The Heritage Book Fair also proved to be a success as many took the opportunity of viewing Anthony Catania's painting exhibition The Pied Piper, which will be open till October 19.

In the past I remember the musaums used to open their doors for free on every first Sunday of the month. this practice was discontinued when Heritage Malta took over thus depriving the maltese public of a very valid incentive. I'm sure that if this practice is reactivated it would not send Heritage malta on the way to bankruptcy.
