With the continuous development and progress of society, the functions and potential power of museums are constantly enriched and expanded.
Featured exhibitions, research lectures, cultural and creative IP incubation, immersive performances... The museums that used to be slightly "cold and niche" in the past are more "warm and lively", building a public cultural space that connects the past and the present with the future.
Today, museums have gradually transformed into knowledge service-oriented institutions that affect the public, society and even the times.
During the epidemic prevention and control period, museums around the world have successively launched a series of online educational activities such as "cloud" exhibition viewing and "cloud" live broadcast, so that museum education "does not close" and continuously enhances the people's sense of gain and happiness.
