| Summary: | An EXARC 'call to arms' to reevaluate and develop your Open-Air Museum's interpretation strategy. The year 2020 started out for museums as usual, with plans for new exhibitions, new buildings even, and above all many events and visitors. Soon we saw how wrong we were.

This article is an EXARC 'call to arms' to reevaluate and develop your Open-Air Museum's interpretation strategy. |
