Fumettoteca Nazionale in Forlì: vision, space and funding needed to grow

Fumettoteca Nazionale of Forlì: priorities for development

Operating for 16 years, the Fumettoteca Nazionale of Forlì is asking for a more structured plan: suitable spaces, stable funding and dedicated staff are needed to move from a volunteer-led project to a sustainable cultural service.

Key issues:

• A significant portion of the collection remains inaccessible due to insufficient storage and display space.
• The Fumettoteca functions as a social community hub, offering opening hours and services that complement local cultural provision.
• Without a multi-year plan, it is difficult to secure workshops, educational programs and social inclusion initiatives.

Staff requests:

• Long-term projects to create consultable archive rooms and dedicated workshop spaces.
• Hiring or contracts that ensure continuity of qualified personnel.
• Dedicated funding for conservation, cataloguing and public programming.

Although inclusion in the Museo San Domenico route has increased visibility, the team stresses that being on a cultural map must be matched by real resources. The appeal is primarily addressed to the Municipality of Forlì to convert institutional recognition into concrete investments.
