Museums & Exhibitions

For decades, museums have been places of quiet reflection, while esports arenas have thrived on noise, energy, and competition. Yet beneath their differences lies a shared mission: both celebrate creativity, skill, and human expression. Today, a growing number of museums are recognizing esports not just as entertainment, but as cultural heritage in the making, worthy of preservation, study, and celebration. From Pixels to Patrimony Video games have long outgrown their image a

Prague Castle doesn’t whisper history. It thunders from atop the Hradčany hill, with its pointed towers slicing the skyline and its ancient walls folding centuries into every courtyard. Built, expanded, burned, and rebuilt across more than a thousand years, the castle is not one building but an evolving city within a city. It has been home to kings, emperors, bishops, dissidents, and now presidents. The site dates back to circa 880 CE, making it one of Europe’s oldest continu

When it was unveiled in 1989, many called it a disgrace. A modernist shard dropped into the classical courtyard of the Louvre. A cold, foreign form in the heart of a national treasure. But three decades later, the Louvre Pyramid, designed by I. M. Pei is not just accepted. It is iconic. And for museum professionals, it represents something profound: How can we build the future without flattening the past? How do we make heritage more visible, not more sacred? A Puzzle of Time

High above the limestone cityscape of Cairo, where sand meets skyline and minarets pierce the sky, rises the Cairo Citadel. It is a fortress, palace, and spiritual anchor, a place where power was both declared and defended. Built in the 12th century by Saladin, it has watched over centuries of sultans, invasions, dynasties, and dreams. But more than a historical monument, the Citadel is a living diagram of layered authority, religious, military, colonial, and national. For mu

Food is more than sustenance, it’s memory, identity, and connection. Every recipe carries a story, every flavor a trace of migration, adaptation, and exchange. Around the world, a new generation of museums is recognizing food as one of humanity’s richest cultural archives, turning culinary heritage into an art form and a lens for understanding who we are. The Edible Archive Food museums are not just about tasting, they’re about storytelling. From ancient grains and spice rout

Sixty feet tall. Four presidents. Carved directly into the granite face of the Black Hills. Mount Rushmore, completed between 1927 and 1941, is one of America’s most recognizable icons. It was conceived as a tribute to democracy but built on stolen Indigenous land, with a legacy tied to white nationalism and erased narratives. For museum professionals, Mount Rushmore is not just a monument to four men. It is a test of how cultural institutions confront power, myth, and omissi

It is one of the most recognized buildings in the world. 775 rooms. 19 staterooms. 78 bathrooms. A private chapel. A ballroom. A balcony. And yet, Buckingham Palace is not a museum though it often feels like one. It is both a residence and a relic. Theater and institution. And in the age of democratized culture and decolonial critique, it is also a question: What does it mean to curate a space still occupied by the system it symbolizes? From Modest Mansion to National Monumen

The walls between education and culture are blurring. As universities face rising costs, digital disruption, and growing questions about relevance, museums are emerging as powerful centers of lifelong learning. Their blend of storytelling, accessibility, and interdisciplinary insight positions them to fill a gap that traditional academia can no longer fully address. The question is no longer whether museums can educate, but whether they might one day rival universities as pla
