Museum Influencers of India, 2021
2020-21 has been a challenging time for museums. There are hundreds of museums in India, and all have been impacted by COVID-19. The pandemic and lockdown restrictions have forced museums to close temporarily, and some might not reopen. There has been a drastic impact on museums economically as well as culturally.
On the occasion of International Museum Day, we want to acknowledge the present situation. As museums reopen globally, the experience delivered will be different. People are now looking for new initiatives and innovations to revitalise museums.
In our first Museum Influencers List, we recognise the achievements of 10 people whose works in this domain have helped museums grow and transform to fit the ever growing needs and demands of visitors. We celebrate the people who are enabling and encouraging this change in the world of museums.
