The article written by Hein demonstrates the shift of churches as it develops over the decades. At first churches were created to store, preserve, and study the collection but now it has become a more business oriented sector as they grow to appease the public. The museums now define themselves by what the public wants and act to improve human lives by engaging the public to a learning environment as they come to museums. In class, we looked up different museums online to see how the museums try to reach the public and we found some interesting tactics that were common amongst the groups. First of all, all of them had children friendly events and arts and crafts area. There were outreach programs and student outreach. Also, you could add them on facebook and twitter. As you can see, museums have evolved to serve the public and they “exist for the things they put in them.” Furthermore the museums have changed from a “selling” mode where they try to get the public to come see their traditional exhibits to a “marketing” mode where they focused on pleasing the public’s needs. I have experienced this first hand because a lot of museums have interactive events which are more public friendly and do not just restrict to a certain class or mindset of people. The picture displays how the museums have changed to allow people to interact and engage as they also learn at the museums which attract more members.
