Should museums be free for admission or not? Museum is a place to exhibit things or events which are significant and memorable. Nowadays people become decreasingly willing to visit museums hence some museums tend to be free for public. Free admission brings advantages indeed but the disadvantages are obvious as well. Free admission for museums brings one significant advantage: it considerably raises the visitors number which is museum's original intension. Generally museum is a place where people would not review. However the museum visitors are mainly non-local and most of them would not visit a museum unless a museums displays novelty and other interesting exhibits. Free admission would attract more non-local people to make them remember where they visit. Moreover, it is also an available method to bring local review, especially for young people since museums are educational venues that convey culture, spirit and knowledge. However, the negative effects of free admission can not be overlook either. First of all, it becomes harder to financially support a free museum because museum is not only the place to display but also for conservation. Protections and maintenance are important for exhibits for long-term preservation whereas free tickets would leave fund blank that might lead the exhibits lives to be shortened. Moreover, visitor's growth means more possibility of exhibits suffering damages. It gives an administration and security burden for supervisors. In addition, free admission might not a sound way to establish a public awareness of respecting exhibits. Over all, I believe that the disadvantages brought from free admission for museums overweighs the advantages. Tickets with reasonable price are necessary income for overheads which is important to support protection and administration so that museums are able to preserve exhibit as long as possible to show more generations.
