Publisher Description: Beyond the Halls is a book that speaks to museum lovers (and haters) who are looking to discover, for the first time, the history of museums and the dynamic nature of the industry. The past, present and future of human culture can be found inside glass, on walls, or tucked away in a climate-controlled environment. 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. Stigma surrounds museums claiming they are boring, dusty, and stagnant, but within these pages, you'll find thoughtful insights, heart-warming stories, and even games you can play with friends. Explore the many ways that you can appreciate displays and gain more memorable, exciting experiences inside museums. |
