Museums ensure understanding and appreciation for people, art, culture and history. They promote better understanding of heritage and foster dialogue, curiosity and self-reflection . Furthermore, they serve to help future generations comprehend their history and recognize the achievements of those who came before them.
Yes, indeed! Museums are both necessary and relevant today. They are the institutions charged with conserving, protecting and displaying artifacts from our past and thus preserving our rich heritage which might otherwise be lost to private collectors or to time itself. Quite simply, without museums we would most certainly lose the tangible links to our past.
