PROJECTS
What visitor panelists are saying about Musynergy:
"Participating in the visitor panel enabled me to experience the thoughts and concepts of a new vision for the museum. A vision that focuses on an individual experience of art and not the museum's concept of art."
“Interaction with visitor panel members and staff makes me feel the museum is a part of my community, not apart from my community.”
