The Maltese Cinderella And Her Sisters
2026-01-22 08:30 - 20:00, 2026-01-21 08:30 - 20:00, 2026-01-20 08:30 - 20:00, 2026-01-19 08:30 - 20:00, 2026-01-18 08:30 - 20:00, 2026-01-17 08:30 - 20:00, 2026-01-16 08:30 - 20:00, 2026-01-15 08:30 - 20:00 (Europe/Malta) and 4 more dates | Xewkija Windmill, 8 Triq Il-Mitħna, Xewkija, Gozo, Malta
Starting from the fairytale il-Germudija, the Maltese Cinderella, once told by Marija of Xewkija to Veronica Veen, will be endeavoured to create your own, individual fairytale. This can go deeper than you would think. Besides, we should not forget that fairytales are a specific literary genre with its own background, demands, and layered symbolism.
This workshop will be held on the occasion and and at the venue of the exhibition The Maltese Cinderella and her Sisters, based on Veronica’s groundbreaking and award-winning book “The Maltese Cinderella and the women’s storytelling tradition.”
Completely different from the classical Cinderellas, this superb Gozitan variant features a heroine who is a self-conscious and energetic maid, who knowns without the usual ‘helping animals’ or godmother/fairy to ‘conquer’ the heart of a somewhat timid son of the rich household, so not a King or Prince. The story, with its independent and wise heroine-against-all-odds, still conveys a clear message for women today.

Frank Mizzi's Iconic Nativity Crib
2026-01-11 09:00 - 17:00, 2026-01-10 09:00 - 17:00 | Il-Ħaġar Gozo Museum, Triq il-Karita`, Victoria, Gozo, Malta
Frank Mizzi began constructing this unique Christmas crib around forty years ago, and it has remained a living work in progress ever since — an evolving testament to both artistic devotion and spiritual reflection. Over the decades, Mizzi continuously refined and expanded the scene, adding new features, figures, and details that imbue the crib with a profound sense of narrative and craftsmanship.
Until only a few years ago, the crib was lovingly displayed in an exhibition space adjoining his home in Triq tal-Għajn, just off St Augustine Square in Victoria. There, it became something of a local treasure, drawing visitors who admired its intricate detail and heartfelt expression of faith.
In a gesture of remarkable generosity and foresight, Frank Mizzi donated this exceptional work to Il-Ħaġar Museum, ensuring its preservation and accessibility for future generations. Today, the crib stands not only as a masterpiece of artisanal skill but also as a symbol of dedication, tradition, and community spirit — a celebration of the timeless story of the Nativity as seen through the eyes of one man’s lifelong passion.

Between Earth, Light & Silence
2026-01-11 09:00 - 17:00 | Il-Ħaġar Gozo Museum, Triq il-Karita`, Victoria, Gozo, Malta
In this temporary exhibition, Gozitan artist Victor Agius explores the theme of the Nativity as a liminal threshold — a space where the earthly and the divine converge. Twenty years after his seminal exhibition Nativitas, Agius returns to this sacred narrative, inviting viewers to dwell in the mystery of the Incarnation, where matter meets spirit and silence receives light.
Through a poetic interplay of earth, pigment, and form, Agius reinterprets traditional iconography and transforms it into a contemporary meditation on birth, transformation, and the sacredness of being. His works evoke both fragility and transcendence, reflecting the human longing for connection with the divine.
The exhibition becomes a journey through stillness and revelation, where clay, ash, and light act as vessels of memory and hope. Agius’s art calls us to pause — to sense the quiet miracle unfolding within and around us — and to rediscover the Nativity not only as an event of the past but as an ever-present moment of becoming.
