Headline says UK's museums, but the article only refers to English museums. Culture is devolved, as is the free entry policy. Not saying it isn't an issue in Wales - whose national museums are certainly under pressure. But pls stop saying UK when you mean England.

Collections Management Survey – Help Shape Athena We're developing Athena, a collections management system designed for UK museums of all sizes. This quick survey (2-3 minutes) helps us understand your current challenges and priorities. All…

Quick question for museum people: what's the #1 thing that frustrates you about your current collections system?

(Asking because we're building a tool that actually listens to that frustration.)

Vital Aboriginal records saved in the 70s by an astute WA archivist Margaret Medcalf, who turns 100 this week, insisted that decades of Aboriginal welfare records be preserved in the state archives and not destroyed. Those documents have proved essential to connecting Aboriginal people with their family history.  #history #libraries #museums #galleries

Northern Pacific steam locomotive 924 up just past Snoqualmie Falls during a training run in 2025. Viewed from the front, right at the end of the Museum's tracks. A light cloud of steam surrounds the front of the locomotive on either side. The trees are still mostly green overhead, but a little bit of yellow is starting to show.

We try not to share photos of 924 too much to avoid giving people the impression we run her more often than we do, but can you blame us? She's so photogenic!

Museum Bredius in The Hague displays a rare 1670 perspective box cabinet with a painting by Samuel van Hoogstraeten. One of only six 17th-century perspective boxes left in the world, the cabinet’s warped-perspective internal scene looks perfect when viewed through a peep-hole.

a set of two small statuettes, it is of a nymph-type young female in a thin dress under a graceful arch curving around her, there are two statues, the girls slightly different

a close-up of the feet of one of the girls, fabric from her dress laying across her ankles, the base of the statue below the rocks and earth she is standing on

the statues seen from their hips up, positioned differently, one facing the viewer, the other facing right

a close-up of one of the statues, seen facing the viewer from her waist up

England set to charge foreign tourists for entry to leading museums Move would affect British Museum and National Gallery, but could depend on success of government ID card roll-out

A reminder - yet again - to the @BBCRadio4 when they're telling us the UK government is discussing charging for entry to 'national' museums, that culture is devolved.
They're talking about museums in England. Even the FT managed to note that.

What makes something truly Thai?

A Bangkok museum tackled that question with instant noodles, QR codes, and a Lady Gaga mannequin. My wife and I played, laughed, and learned. Best museum experience in years.

The Museum Twilight Zone: Performing the Animal Limbo How curators use a language that upholds century-old resentments about women, animals, and the “scandal” of a fashion.

The upcoming V&A #Schiaparelli exhibition explores the surrealist, nature-inspired world of Elsa Schiaparelli. As we admire these historic garments, we need to talk about a hidden bias in how #museums curate #fashion with #animals compared to natural history museums
