Today’s night at the museum greatly reinforced my ideas about museums. Prior to tonight I had already thought that museums were a great place to expose yourself to other cultures, history, and just things that you would never typically see. Today helped reinforce this by adding another layer to museums, which is a social aspect. I was in a group with someone from my cohort that I did not regularly interact with and I used the museum to connect with them and share our perspectives together. This showed me that museums are not only a place to expose yourself to art and artifacts but to also socialize and share ideas in the same space.
