A survey of 20 museums across the country revealed that most museums are experiencing a rise in attendance. According to a recent article this trend holds true for institutions requiring payment as well as those that offer free admission.
I was a little surprised to learn that not only has there been an increase in attendance during hard economic times, but the museums that have benefited the most are the contemporary art museums. It appears that contemporary art is currently a hot item at auction houses as well as at museums.

One of the museums that has benefited from this increase in attendance is the Chicago Museum of Art. It’s believed the increase in visitors at this museum is due to its location, recent expansion, many choosing to stay close to home and various other reasons.
This holiday season may be a great time to visit a local or museum that is not too far away.
