Museums Should Be Free?

The Castle @ The Smithsonian
The timing is appropriate since this weekend is Museum Day in the US when many museums will open their doors free to the masses.

This thought-provoking article is from the The Huffington Post (by Hallie Sekoff) via the Los Angeles Times (by Jori Finkel). Several LA museum directors discuss the decisions around whether to charge admission to the some of the world's great museums and why some do and some don't.

And don't forget to scroll through the montage of Top 10 Free Museums in the United States ("Remember the Alamo").

Happy Museum Day!
