"Art is for everyone — or is it? In New York City, ticket prices for some museums and institutions are raising eyebrows." Single-day tickets at the Whitney and the Met are $30; and others like MoMA and the Guggenheim aren't far behind. hyperallergic.com/833929/these…

Art is all around, not just the investment stuff in museums and galleries though.

We are very fortunate that so many UK museums (the British Museum, National History Museum, Imperial War Museum, Science Museum, the Great North Museum, International Slavery Museum, National Museum of Scotland), Roman forts and art galleries (National Portrait Gallery, Tate Britain / Tate Modern, Baltic) are free entry for all the main collections. Art and knowledge should be for all ❤️

check the price of concerts or football matches. Not for everyone either…

Meanwhile, many smaller and more community-focused museums (for example, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts) have free admission. We don't even charge for special exhibitions because art really _should_ be for everyone.
