“Shouldn't a great museum foster serious seeing before all else?”
Mark Stevens
Kytherians are currently engaged in establishing a number museums in both halves of the globe. In the town of Bingara in north western New South Wales provision has been made for the development of a Museum that will be integrated throughout the venue – the Roxy ‘complex’. Plans are also afoot to establish a Aphrodite Museum on Kythera, and to re-open the Archaeological Museum, at Hora, Kythera.
In this section you are free to place your thoughts, insights and philosophies in determining – what makes a great museum?
Feel free to place photographs and ideas here, of superior museums that you have visited anywhere in the world.
A cross-fertilisation of ideas may serve to enhance the quality of any or all of the ‘Kytherian’ museums that are planned for the future.
