It’s been said many times before that no one really owns art. We might display art in our homes and we might devote our lives to collecting it and enjoying it, but we are but a blip in the lifespan of a piece of art—it will almost certainly outlive all of us. This is why museums are so wonderful. They take on the responsibility of being stewards of art and culture for a longer period of time than we are physically capable. Museums are the safeguards to guarantee that our children and grandchildren will have access to these great objects. Museums also help us learn. They add context. They reshape ideas or sprout new ones. They challenge us. They enhance our understanding of the world. They give us reason to reflect on our past and cheer on our future. We hope you enjoy our 2023/2024 Museum Guide in this issue, and we hope you support these and many other museums.
