International Museum Day falls on May 18. The debate over whether museums should be free is a big one right now. Some people share their opinions.

Li Jiang

I think art exhibits should be free to the public. I do, however, think twice a year the museums should host a fund-raising event to help pay for the cost of upkeep.

They do it all the time. Wealthy buyers pay $100 for a plate and the proceeds are given to the museum. If you decide you want to buy the art, the proceeds should go to the artist, with a fee going to the museum.

Su Hua

Free entrance does not attract people, nor does it encourage them to appreciate it.

Sure, there are exceptions to this, but by and large human beings tend to look up to things that are difficult or costly to access.

A better option is to charge fees for regular visitors but provide free tickets as prizes for high-achieving students and others who are likely to appreciate the reward.

【答案】Li Jiang and Su Hua hold different opinions on whether museums should be free for the public. Li believes that museums shouldn’t charge visitors for admission while Su thinks otherwise.

On a personal note, museums should be available to all visitors for free. First and foremost, museums house many precious artworks, antiques and relics, and free access will attract more lovers to explore their history and culture, which may add to a feeling of national identity. Besides, given that museums are always a crucial source of inspiration and education, free access is a rewarding investment in the future and is of great benefit to securing prosperity of the whole society. What’s more, free access can also boost the number of visitors, thus expanding cultural power to its fullest.

In conclusion, to help build up national pride and promote cultural confidence, museums should be open for free to provide more cultural and educational opportunities.
