Contributing to a museum's development takes many forms and motivations, for example by enriching its collections with one or more works, or by financially supporting its activities. And why choose to make a donation? To contribute to the community's heritage, which will be passed on to future generations, because of their attachment to the institution, or in memory of a loved one to whom the object once belonged. Over the decades, the collections at Musée Ariana have been shaped by the generosity of donors and the loyalty of many patrons. This exhibition is divided into twelve sections, highlighting some of the stories and tales of donations that have shaped the majority of our collections.
To mark the occasion, a new module has been inaugurated in the Accumulation room; its presentation reveals the different ways in which the museum's collections have been enriched, in line with its acquisition policy.

The Jet d&#39;Eau is a large fountain in Geneva, Switzerland. It is one of the city&#39;s most famous landmarks, appearing on the official Geneva tourism website and used on the official logo for the 2008 European Football Championship group stage in Geneva.

Located at the confluence of Lake Geneva and the Rhone River, the Jet d&#39;Eau is visible from the whole city and even from the air, even when flying at an altitude of ten kilometers (33,000 feet) over Geneva. It is spectacular.

On summer or festive nights, it is illuminated in color.

The giant &quot;broken chair&quot; is a wooden artwork that symbolizes the movement against landmines. The broken chair has only three legs. It is one of the most symbolic art works of the 21st century. The broken chair is the work of the sculptor. It was made for the NGO International Disability Assistance in 1997.
