International Museum Day, don't let free open only one day

Modern Express May 19 reported that the "International Museum Day" on the day, Nanjing, 42 museums concentrated free opening, more than 200,000 people walked into the museum to visit. The annual free opening of the Nanjing Museum of the day to visit the number of 18,000 people, far more than usual.

The museum has brought great reception pressure to the pavilion, which has brought anxiety to the preservation of cultural relics. The audience is unable to appreciate the treasures of the relics because of their busy and overcrowded halls. Museums and spectators were too overwhelmed to let the free open Day end up in an awkward position of "not pleasing at both ends."

Undeniably, the museum's bursting shows that, compared with the people's increasingly urgent spiritual and cultural needs, our public cultural services too much debt. Free opening of museums is the embodiment of the government's public service function.

But "free and open" should not be concentrated on the day of "International Museum Day". But according to the actual situation, increases the preferential period. More is not simple free open on the all right, should adapt to local conditions, from a humane perspective to consider. This year, Shanghai's "Museum Day" activities, took the city 120 museums free of charge for three days, "handheld museum" focused on the line, in order to allow viewers to avoid the commuting, but also opened the museum "bus Tour", greatly easing the free opening of many contradictions.
