The trip on February 10 , 2011 to Lights and Sounds was very educational and was very fun . The parts about Jose P. Rizal were very interesting and I learned a lot about his life. There were two parts that scared me the most . First , was the one where we saw the characters of Noli Me Tangere and El Felibusterismo . What scared me there was Sisa , because of her laugh( while she cried ) and how she moved . The second thing that scared me was at the last part when we entered the room the lights went of and we could only hear voices . I’m so glad I’ve gotten over it easily .
I’ve also seen how big Intramuros is just by looking at it’s model . Although, there were parts I didn’t quite understand . At the end of the tour we all sat down on the floor to watch a video and at the end of that video the doors were opened by a soldier . The light sort of blinded our eyes. I think it was because we spent time in the dark for an hour. I had a laugh with my friends about that part .
All the lessons I’ve had since Grade Four started coming back to me . It was like a review for us . I’ve also learned more details to Jose Rizal’s life . My classmates and I enjoyed the trip going there because we got to spend it together . It was our last field trip in CCWB . I’m so glad to have went there and I feel like I want to go back this time with my family .

I could not find the virtual tour online but I did look at pictures. The best part about this museum is all the antiques and replicas of how immigrants lived and how much living space they had.

McNeil Museum of Art is located in Universal City, which has a large metropolitan population of 2.5 million residents. In they year 2004, they recorded their 3rd annual loss of ($383,715); totaling ($794,086) in the past 3 years. They have also depleted their savings and the interest they make on investments is declining with no positive sights in the near future. The museum makes 43% of their $6,657,644 revenue from the 17,634 membership dues charged to personal and corporate accounts. The amount of memberships has been down for the past 5 years. The memberships cost $854,461 plus extract $1,057,800 from their income due to benefits given to members. 80% of membership revenues come from personal accounts, the other 20% comes from corporate accounts. 475 association members volunteer, which saves the museum a substantial amount of operations cost that they do not have to pay employees. McNeil does not charge the public for museum visits, and therefore all other revenue is made by contributions, grants, Fannel County, investments, and auxiliary activities. The museum could potentially have over 2.5 million visits each year if all members of Fannel County attended at least once; however, they are only attracted 628,472 attendants in the year 2004. McNeil Museum of Art’s image is often criticized for only being an exclusive parking and lunching attraction for the rich members. The museum also faces a major awareness issues; director of development and community affairs, Ashley Mercer, claims that people don’t even know what the museum is or the things that it offers. They promote the awareness through publications, press releases, and other ways of informing the public; and although awareness is such an issue, Mercer clearly stated that the Board of Trustees would not allow them to increase these costs in the year 2005, which was $594,067 in 2004, an increase of 31% from 2003. Also, there are many monetary decisions that the company can make to fix their…

The reddish strokes in the space above the hat could represent anxiety or uncertainty, which is what his facially expression seems to present to the viewer as well. The grayish paint strokes represented in the negative space outside van Gogh’s image sharply contrasts with the orange, yellow and reddish colors in the facial area and hat, which adds to the overall boldness and vibrancy of the painting. In addition, the space appears to be illusionistic, as the painter depicts an illusion (van Gogh himself) of the three-dimensional spatial world on a two-dimensional…

From visiting the California mission of San Fernando museum was really great experience I had a tour guide that was showing me all the great and important history of the California mission. The museum that I went was called “Mission San Fernando, Rey De España”.

Presentation is everything. People often over look something because the first impression they experience is lack luster. The Sutliff museum is full of timeless treasures, offering a wonderful insight to 19th century history and the underground railroad. Unfortunately, the current promotional material does not do the museum justice. It appears out date and doesn't grab the attention of an audience. I’d like to rebrand the promotional material for The Sutliff Museum so that it reflects an updated, fresh design that draws people to the museum. My intent is to design two brochures, an information flyer, and update the website layout.…

The Appleton Museum is undeniably a treasured gem to the Central Florida area. Many residents to the region are unaware of the history located right in their backyards. I’ve lived in the area my entire life and never had any knowledge of this incredible gallery. When I caught wind of the assignment, my initial thought was that I was going to have to go visit an old, beat up building that displays some prints that great artists around the world have created. I was delighted to find out just how wrong I was for thinking that way. The Appleton Museum is filled with exquisite and original paintings, impressions, sculptures, and pottery from around the world, dating all the way back to the 1600’s. I had many favorites that caught my eye, but there were a few that really stick out in my mind.…

One of the most memorable moments I have experienced was four years ago, when I traveled from Matamoros, Tamaulipas to San Antonio, Texas. I had the opportunity of visiting San Antonio for the first time, and more importantly, of spending time with my family who I had not seen in years prior to the trip. Spending time with my family is of great value and importance to me, so I became utterly excited to see them as soon as I had the chance.…

In this essay, I will argue that ethnographic museums privilege viewing, at the expense of other senses. I will further argue that by privileging the visual, ethnographic museums become problematic in two ways- firstly, by not accurately representing the cultures they are supposed to be exhibiting, and secondly, by limiting the experience of museum-goers who may be visually impaired or otherwise unable to visit museums that are purely mono-sensorial. After outlining and discussing the problems associated with ocularcentric post-colonial museums, I will offer a few solutions to these problems. The majority of colonial museums privileged viewing and the visual. In the 17th and 18th century, Europeans believed reason and sensuality to be opposing…

Museums are essential for sustaining the world’s biological and cultural diversity. Yet they can do more without undermining their commitment to thorough and rigorous science. For example, they can increase the accessibility of their collections. The advent of new information technologies allows natural history museums to digitize collections and to make associated scientific data accessible to wide audiences. These technologies enable the sharing of data with countries that have provided collection material, thereby closing the digital divide. Database and imaging technologies can also transform enormous collections into innovative tools for identification in the field.…
