Once upon a time, there was a beloved children’s museum in the middle of a thriving city. The brilliant team at the museum set out to find a bigger space and ran a successful capital campaign to expand to a much larger location. Like the set of the movie Night at the Museum , these guests had the whole museum to themselves.

Every day for the past two months, a man has entered the largest gallery in my museum. It also complicates the question of what is acceptable in a museum. If an artist can come into a museum and smash stuff, what does that tell visitors? It is not acceptable to walk into a museum and destroy another artist''s work of art.

The museum notes that it’s four times sharper than the last scan that was put out by the museum, which was only 44.8 Arguably it’s an even better experience than seeing the painting in the flesh, since this software allows you to really press your nose up against it in a way that would get you thrown out of most museums.

I also heard that fundraising training is not for us, meaning it was designed for large nonprofits like universities, museums, and hospitals. Yet Latinx nonprofits work on climate change, conservation, the arts, health, LGBTQ+ rights, womens rights and empowerment, voting rights, education, etc. They dont look further.
