BEIRUT, May 26 (Xinhua) -- The Sursock Museum dedicated to modern and contemporary art reopened on Friday after three years of repair to its building and collections damaged by massive port explosions in Beirut in 2020.
The Sursock Museum succeeded in raising around 2.4 million U.S. dollars to complete the restoration work through financial assistance from the International Alliance for the Protection of Heritage in Conflict Areas, the French Ministry of Culture, and a 1-million-euro donation from the Italian government under UNESCO's LiBeirut initiative.
