Study of the educational resources for familiar public in the European and North American museums of art
Abstract
Nowadays, families not only make up a very important part of the total museum visitors, especially on weekends and holidays, but are also one of the most interesting groups when it comes to educational activities at the museum, due to the particular interactions that happen within each family and the peculiarities that are characteristic of a multi-generational group. The aim of this article is, firstly, to analyse the history of educational programs in European and North-American museums, focusing on the moment when families started to be considered a target audience, and then looking at the current time, in order to analyse the activities offered nowadays for families in art museums and educational programs and classify them in a diagram.Downloads
