A Good Idea: Ask A Curator Day
Ever walked around a museum or gallery and been baffled or intrigued by an exhibit, only to find your intellectual curiosity thwarted by the lack of an appropriately learned person to ask? If so, today is your day.
Because today is Ask a Curator Day on Twitter (hashtag: #askacurator). The boffs have come out to play in 23 countries including the UK, the USA, Australia, Chile, Spain and Sri Lanka.

It's great to read the questions people are asking to museums worldwide and it will be interesting to analyze them in depth after #askacurator is finished.
