#Museums are places that hoard obscure statues of long-forgotten schmucks. 👴🏻🗿🏛️ Or are they❓ Imagine a world where museum objects come to life and tell their stories, where you can meet significant figures from the past, and where you have a guide by your side who knows the museum as well as the chief expert but understands your interests precisely. Sounds like sci-fi? Maybe so, but thanks to #artificialintelligence and your natural curiosity, this vision could become a reality. Our team of experts is already working on creating a #mobileguide that would use artificial intelligence to create a unique #experience for every museum visitor. It's called Cabinet of Wonders! Soon we'll be able to experience museums in a completely new way. The future of museums starts to look as promising as their past.

The Spring 2024 issue of Exhibition journal is now out. “Alternative Realities” surveys many ways exhibitions can question existing systems and open pathways to new and more equitable futures. At a time when what divides us can feel almost insurmountable, authors share how they are harnessing hope, challenging prevailing narratives, and upending established museum practices as they seek to reshape our vision of what is possible—within and beyond the museum. Exhibition is a journal of exhibition theory and practice for museum professionals published by the American Alliance of Museums.

Trust is a powerful word, especially when it comes to museums. But what happens when 'trust' becomes something we actively promote rather than something we quietly earn? Amanda Krantz's article challenges the comfort many find in labeling museums as 'trusted' institutions. Her reflections urge us to reconsider how we talk about trust in the museum sector—highlighting the delicate balance between influence and responsibility. Amanda's piece reminds us that trust isn't a label to be worn proudly, but a dynamic relationship to be continuously nurtured. https://lnkd.in/gGVgNbsY #LearningHub #insight #MuseumInsight
