Text: description of a wine museum

Context : "Il Museo è divenuto in breve tempo non solo meta di costanti e sempre più cospicui flussi turistici, ma importante ***contenitore culturale*** per la presentazione di mostre, libri, convegni. "

Le mie opzioni sarebbero :

1. venue for cultural events
2. cultural hub

Qualcuno può suggerirmi un'espressione migliore ?
Si tratta di un museo del vino che sorge in una cittadina di provincia (prov. di Taranto). Forse ***cultural hub*** è esagerato e pretenzioso per una cittadina di provincia ?

cultural venue

Your first choice is excellent, I agree "hub" is a bit excessive in this context

a gathering/grouping/collection of culture

I think this will work. Contenitore intents a grouping, togetherness or collection (of course just pick one :-))
Hope this helps
