5 THINGS THAT CAN MAKE VISITING A MUSEUM BEING FUN

Who said visiting a museum was boring? Who also said that a museum was always gloomy?

If we visit the Museum that is ordinary, maybe that impression is what we will get, but if we visit a museum that turns out to be able to dismiss that impression, it must be fun, then what is the thing that makes a museum fun? Here are 5 things that can make your visit to the museum fun:

1. Museum that stimulates curiosity.

Basically, a museum must have an educational content from its collection, but without the stimulus to its visitors to have more curiosity about collections or stories about a collection, visitors will only watch the collection display in passing.

At the Indonesian Islamic Art Museum Lamongan for example, to stimulate the curiosity of visitors, an Islamic warrior statue that soars attracts visitors to know more about the museum collection which turns out to vary from Turkey, Moghul, China, and so on.

2. Museums that do not patronize but provide education.

Often visitors to the museum do not yet have an interest in something that is a collection in the museum, but the right treatment in a collection will provide information that educates without visitors being patronized.

Concrete examples are at the Indonesian Heritage Museum in Batu Malang, the use of the story teller as an official guide in this museum, was able to foster interest in many visitors in this museum. This may still be attached to ordinary people with oral culture and the increasingly reduced culture of literacy even among our students.

3. Museum that gives excitement.

The atmosphere clearly affects visitors in enjoying the museum, so that a calm atmosphere while providing excitement will have a positive impact on visitors to the museum.

At the Indonesian Islamic Art Museum, again we find something that makes visitors feel compelled to visit it. In the museum, visitors are given diorama dioramas where visitors can do self-portraits, things that are now as if they are not abandoned by the public.

4. Use of appropriate technology.

Technology was created to provide convenience as well as fun for its users, especially at this time, where even the people even in rural communities, the ease of technology can be utilized properly.

Indonesian heritage museum and Indonesian Islamic art museum, both provide AR facilities that can be used by visitors, both for observing collections closer or just for selfie.

5. Creative museums can make visitors come back to visit.

The repeat rate or return visit to museum objects is usually very minimal, but with the right creativity, it is not impossible for visitors to visit the museum again several times.

According to the plan, at the History of Java Museum which will open September or October 2018 in Yogyakarta, in addition to providing AR technology and interactive dioramas that can be enjoyed by visitors, the museum also prepares a food court that adopts the already famous Malioboro street atmosphere. Large near the food court will also be used as an art and cultural performance held regularly and sporadically.

That's 5 things that can make visitors feel happy, have visited the 3 museums above? If not, immediately plan your visit there!
