BBK

Since 1997, BBK has been a Strategic Trustee of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, being actively involved in the Museum’s management as a member of both the Executive Committee and the Board of Trustees. The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao-BBK partnership is aimed at strengthening social cohesion and the cultural foundations for the development of the Bizkaia society. Carrying out creative and innovative projects, the Museum and BBK want to promote the knowledge and understanding of contemporary art, reaching out to all kinds of audiences.

BBK makes tools available to improve visitors’ understanding of art, boosting the tourism potential of Bilbao and Bizkaia, and thus contributing to strengthen its economic impact on the city and region. BBK sponsors activities with a social purpose, bringing the Museum closer to underprivileged groups by organizing guided tours for disabled visitors and vulnerable persons, and activities for children’s wards at the hospitals in Basurto and Cruces.
