On May 18th, we join thousands of museums around the world in unleashing the power of museums by celebrating International Museum Day #IMD2022. Though museums have a long way to go in taking critical contemporary issues into consideration, IMWD wholeheartedly believes that “museums have the power to transform the world around us. As incomparable places of discovery, they teach us about our past and open our minds to new ideas — two essential steps in building a better future @ICOMofficiel).” We join our culture and museum colleagues around the world to explore the potential of museums to bring about positive change in their communities. For more info, follow @ICOMoficiel. 📸 These are a handful of images taken by our founder @museumviews over the past two plus decades at various museums around world. IMWD International Museum Workers Dar was established in 2015 by museologist and art historian Homa Taj Nasab with mission to introduce the general public to the myriad professions relating to the creation, research, discovery and presentation of heritage.
