But what attracts society to collect fine art, pottery, and other ancient artifacts? Why do museums exist? InBeyond the Halls: An Insider’s Guide to Loving Museums you’ll find a brief history of museums while exploring the present nature of these institutions and thought-provoking ways to interact with them.

Explore the many ways that you can appreciate displays and gain more memorable, exciting experiences inside museums.
