Why is the speaker giving the talk?

Thanks to you all for coming today. My name is Carlo and I’ll be your guide. We are standing in front of "The House of Folk Art, where visitors can learn about traditional and contemporary folk arts and crafts from around the world. The museum exhibits the collection of the famous artist Harry Thornley, which includes intricate art pieces from Eastern Europe. And at our educational center, you’ll get a chance to create your own artwork. We also offer workshops to teach basic painting skills. Before we start our tour, I’d like to remind everyone that photography is not allowed inside the museum. Now, let’s proceed to the main gallery.
