Christian Museum Reflection

Decent Essays
I surprisingly truly enjoyed my time at the museum. I was there for almost three hours! I am not a huge history fan or a fan of museums but this one truly captivated me. There was so much presented information but it was all explained in such a way that everything was more than understandable. I loved that this museum was child friendly, in fact I am bring my younger siblings to visit at the end of the month. It was refreshing to find out we actually have a Christian museum here in San Diego. I had no idea such a place existed. The staff was so friendly and eager to help and answer questions. I was highly impressed with the interior design of the facility. All of the painted murals were breathtakingly beautiful and highly detailed. I know

    I think the coolest thing at the museum were the two displays they had one of which was a simulation of a cell and how small they were I’d say about 95% of the cell was the bed, the second thing they had was a display of an Andersonville prisoner trying to escape by digging a tunnel with a shiv. I really enjoyed the second display because it really showed the struggle of the prison and how prisoners would do anything to escape. Some of the cons of the museum were that it was almost all based on WWII POW camps there were maybe 6 plaques actually about Andersonville in the museum which I found to be slightly disappointing. Also, the museum could have been…

    Due to my unpredictable work schedule I had to forgo the planned visit. I was slightly apprehensive about this, because I wanted a personal tour, which they offer on planned visits only. After signing the guest book in the front foyer of the museum, I was greeted by a young, knowledgeable volunteer who was more than happy to show me around. It was unusually slow that day so I had the volunteer’s undivided attention, as she did mine. She ushered me through answering every question and explaining each section in greater detail.…

    My visit to the Nelson-Atkins museum was unlike any of my other visits to museums. First of all, I had a solid purpose for going and found myself paying much more attention to the intricacies of pieces I was viewing. Secondly, due to its sheer size, this museum had a wide variety of art from many different cultures and time periods, giving each hallway and room a different feel. Lastly, I felt much more educated about what I was viewing, when compared to previous experiences. I waited until the 8th of July to drive to Kansas City and thus had read most of content that would be covered over the semester.…

    The Dallas Museum of Art was the complete opposite of what I imagined it to be like. Before attending the museum, I had very low expectations. When I thought of “art museum” I imagined dusty walls lined with undiverse and outdated art. I imagined a place old couples went to because they had nothing better to do with their time. A place where the past lingered and grew old as civilization quickly moved on and forgot about it.…

    How much architecture should be included in a museum? That is a question that not many visitors ask about a museum, however as an architect or designer it is a fundamental question to ask one’s self when it comes to describing a museum.
