Today marks the International Museum Day. However, any date on the calendar is conducive to enjoying a cultural plan linked to art. Many museums also offer free or very cheap entry. In other words, museums promote the democratization of culture as a social heritage. What are the five most important reasons to enjoy this cultural plan?
Didactic learning
There are many different ways to learn new things. And some of them go beyond the habit of reading a book. One of the great values of a museum is that attendees have the opportunity to learn new things from the above. But learning is born from a plan that is enjoyed in free time, that is, leisure and learning are two fully compatible concepts.
Aesthetic emotions
There are different types of emotions. In a museum you can experience social emotions since in many moments this type of activity is enjoyed in a group. But you can also put aesthetic emotions into practice. Those emotions of well-being that you experience when you observe the transcendent beauty of a work of art. That is to say, they are emotions that are born from contemplation.
The experience of visiting a museum remains in the memory through the emotions you have experienced. Therefore, it is an investment in happiness.
Museums update their proposals
It does not matter that you have already visited a museum in the past. If you visit it now, you will discover news. And this is also the magic of museums. Its continuous evolution to give visibility to art as essential culture. In addition, you can visit museums of all kinds, also small spaces. Small-scale art galleries that nurture the talent of local artists.
Learn about the museum's activities
You have the possibility to know what the usual activities of the museum are through a cultural agenda. An agenda that may interest you not only on this date but at any time of the year. In this way, you can participate in a more active way in this agenda of activities that many museums also program with children in mind.
It is a leisure activity that you can enjoy with your family, with friends, with classmates or even alone. In fact, you can have a different look at the museum depending on the experience.
Break the routine
For many people, visiting a museum is an almost anecdotal act. A rare plan on your schedule. Through this creative leisure, you can enjoy the well-being of doing a totally different activity than usual and experience the surprise factor. Museums are places to visit calmly and without haste. Therefore, reserve an hour at a time when you can enjoy this activity with peace of mind.
Cultivate your mind
"I only know that I know nothing", this message from Socrates, shows the attitude of the wise person. A person with concerns who always wants to learn. Going to a museum is an experience that educates the mind with notions and ideas that can change your life.
