Halifax Historical Museum

One pleasant afternoon, my classmates and I decided to visit the Houston Museum of Fine Arts to begin on our museum assignment in world literature class. According to Houston Museum of Fine Art’s staff, MFAH considers as one of the largest museums in the nation and it contains many variety forms of art with more than several thousand years of unique history. Also, I have never been in a museum in a very long time especially as big as MFAH, and my experience about the museum was unique and pleasant. Although I have observed many great types and forms of art in the museum, there were few that interested me the most.

The location I chose for my paper was Toronto Canada. Toronto canada is bordering the south lakes, Toronto has a lot of different cultures and wealthy people. There are also a lot of poor people in Toronto as well. There are a lot of tourist that got there all year. The population of Toronto is 2.615 Million people as of 2015.

The first piece of art work that I saw was the work of Frederick William MacMonnies (1863-1937) I felt it captured my attention as I first walked into the room. The unique sculpture “DIANA” really impressed me by depicting a Roman Goddess poised with her bow raised high and ready for the hunt. It was also interesting because the women of that time period were not known as hunters, they were known for being mothers and wives. The piece of art work was medium in sitting on top of a pedestal as you walked into the main exhibit room. There was lots of background information on the poster written below this artwork. It told a story of how MacMonnies and his contemporaries got their inspiration in ancient Greek and Roman culture, and it also took some of the Italian Renaissance into account when making the piece.

The 22,000 square-foot exhibition space contains more than 20 galleries. This museum showcases over 30,000 artifacts. The exhibitions are set up as a time traveling experience that takes visitors across hundreds of years and across the globe. The journey begins in Africa, the cradle of human life and continues on to the slave trade, and the contribution to African culture. In the end, the journey discloses with remarkable triumphs in medicine,

West Florida is starkly different from the preconceived images most U.S citizens have of Florida which consist of huge beaches filled with foreign tourist, high-class hotels and exotic cars. Instead, West Florida contains a mixture of southern agrarian roots and small tight knit communities that have become hallmarks of the deep souths perception. One such area which exemplifies the deep southern aspects of west Florida is the Cove, a small inlet which is located near the current location of Panama City, FL and bordered on it North eastern, southern and western portions by the Massalina Bayou and the St. Andrews Bay. The Cove is a beautifully slightly reclusive settlement that fostered a very inclusive tight knit community in Florida since its first settlements in the 18th century. Jeannie Cooper time stakingly interviewed and researched numerous families in the area to accumulate a detailed history of the Cove through the eyes of the generational families who resided in the area. These

Pensacola is a historical, small, beautiful city down in the South. Pensacola has a charming accent, historical family members from the past, beautiful white beaches, caring and loving people, and a star lit downtown. In Pensacola, you can always find something to do on a rainy or sunny day. On a sunday people hit the waters, they get on their boats and go to a lovely island to enjoy the day. People also go to Pensacola Beach to enjoy the white, relaxing sound of the waves crushing, and all the tourist walking and running down the beach.

Long before the Florida Turnpike and the Interstate Highway System ramped up to full speed and swampland in Central Florida was paved over, Florida tourist venues and roadside attractions were an eclectic mix of fun, imagination, intrigue and amazement for everyone. From reptile farms, tropical gardens and aquatic springs to dolphin shows, old west towns and museums of the unique and strange, tourists visiting Florida were able to catch, either by design or on a whim, these venues, as they rolled down US highways 1,19, 41, 301 and all the off-the-beaten-path back roads. But as time marched on, so did the tourist, as they stayed on the interstate and headed for Orlando, to see what all the hub-bub was about in the early 1970s. The venues and attractions may be long gone, but they are not forgotten, as memories of the wonderful tourist and roadside attractions that were a piece of Florida history, are recalled.

Osceola County was created in 1887. Under state law, the County Commission is responsible for funding the budgets of all Osceola County Government. As the “gateway” to Disneyworld, Osceola County had a population, based on the April 2010, U.S. Census Bureau of 268,685. According to the CAFR for 2014, the population is 295,553 (Appendix Table 11) with an additional 7.1 million visitors annually, and the total property value is 18,197,033. According to an Osceola County July 21, 2015, News Release for the FY2016 Budget, the “county is experiencing many positive signs that the economy is continuing to recover as property valuations increased by 7.54 percent.”

To highlight the relationship between each of the exhibitions, the staff could provide daily visitors with a cohesive guide map of the entire museum. The current location of the museum is massive to accommodate for the displays as well as three research laboratories, but due to large size, each exhibit feels isolated and

Myrtle beach has been around since 1800. First inhabitants were the Waccamaw and Winyah Indians, Myrtle Beach area - began as an Indian trail long before Europeans settled along the Grand Strand. Myrtle Beach has turned into a tourist attraction for many years. My family decided to go there one weekend. The three things I did there was (insert three things that you're going to talk about in your paper)

As a person who is passionate about physics and astronomy, the museums like the Chicago’s Adler Planetarium that are devoted entirely to education and the history of physical science are among the most interesting museums to visit.

The Smithsonian is known for its realization and absolute beauty shown in the exhibits. Every exhibit of this museum has great detail and precision. Not only was each exhibit filled with things of its nature, but also had the right colors to make you feel the exhibit. For example, the vibes flowing from the ocean hall were incredible. The way they accomplished the feel of actually being in the ocean was a surreal experience to even see through the screen. I also liked the way that everything was pretty close to life scale, like the huge whale hanging from the
