The Mint Museum at Randolph is located in Charlotte’s Eastover neighborhood. It was once part of the United States Treasury Department: a mint. In 1936 it became the state’s first art museum. It houses a collection of cozy galleries to display everything from textiles, pottery, ceramics, glass and decorative arts. The exhibit I viewed showcased works from three generations of artists: Newell Convers Wyeth (patriarch), Andrew Wyeth (son) and Jamie Wyeth (grandson). ‘Harbor Monhegan’ was created in

I decided to do the volunteer work at the San Carlos warehouse of the Museum of American Heritage (MOAH). I went there for 3 days to complete the project. On the first day, Jim gave a brief introduction about the warehouse and the types of work they do there. I was surprised when Jim explained that the warehouse is mostly run by volunteers. Then, he introduced me about the main process they did at the warehouse. One of the main tasks is to determine what to do with the artifacts received through

and Their Influence in Support for Public Art Museums Statement of Intent Historically, museums have relied on four sources of financial support: individual contributions, corporate and foundation support, earned revenues, and government grants. This paper focuses on present day corporate support for art and the museums that collect and display that art. It urges museums to reassess their assumptions about corporations and suggests ways that museums can develop new approaches to align their solicitation

In Steven Lubar’s book, Inside the Lost Museum: Curating, Past and Present, the recurring idea that museums are “more than the sum of their parts” plays a critical role in the overall argument (329). Lubar notes many aspects that make up a museum, the collection, for example is an essential part of any museum, but the community, as well as the experiences of the patrons create a lasting museum experience. Additionally, Lubar aptly utilizes real-world examples, contemporary and historical, highlighting

visiting The Cummer Museum of Art and Gardens in Jacksonville, Florida. The museum was founded in 1958 by Ninah Cummer, who had a very nice art collection in her home. The Cummer Museum is built on the site of Arthur and Ninah Cummer’s home and is considered the largest fine arts museum in northeast Florida. The museum has a permanent collection of more than 5,000 objects from various points in history, and the historic gardens have many statues and monuments. Artifacts in the museum include porcelain

Some building are meant to have a great façade and just show how and intricate design can stand up on it s own, but while the Perez Art Museum has great façade and has a very interesting design, its serves to much more than that.

I have attended the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of Arts for my cultural event essay, on Wednesday November 18, 2015. Attending this museum is considered a cultural event since it provides you with the opportunity to learn about the different styles of artworks of different time periods. This museum contained many works that are influenced by classicism which is a style of “historical tradition or aesthetic attitudes based on the art of Greece and Rome” (“Classicism and Neoclassicism”).

the artifact is in the museum then it needs to stay in one place so the object doesn't get tossed around and gets broken. If the artifact breaks then that is a part of history that is gone forever and it will not be here for us to learn about. I feel like if the artifact was found in a certain country then it needs to be stored in its own countries’ museums. In the second story that I’ve read called Museums Preserve the Cultures of The World says that “sometimes museums agree that it is appropriate

My overall experience at El Paso Museum of Art was better than I expected for the overall visit. First I like the say the security was very nice to welcome me into the museum. The security guard explains the exhibits and I can take pics, but it couldn’t be with a flash. I was very impress during my visit by so many painting and sculptures that I would never have even thought I could find stimulating and actually enjoying the amazing collection of oil canvas paintings that had the ability to bring
