Increased Museum Attendance During International Events: A Cultural Boost International events have a remarkable way of bringing the world together—and for museums, they offer an incredible opportunity to showcase culture and heritage to a global audience. Whether it's during world expos, sporting events, or international conferences, museums often experience a surge in attendance as visitors seek to explore the local culture and history. This increase in museum foot traffic not only highlights the power of cultural tourism but also reinforces the role of museums as vital community spaces. For many, museums become gateways to understanding the host country's identity, providing deeper context to the international event itself. With strategic planning, museums can harness these moments to engage new audiences, promote their collections, and offer unique, event-themed programming. The ripple effect of increased awareness and appreciation for cultural institutions can have lasting benefits for both the museum and the local economy. Let’s continue to celebrate the vital role of museums in connecting people across borders, fostering cultural exchange, and creating lasting memories during international events. 🌍🏛️ #Museums #CulturalTourism #InternationalEvents #MuseumAttendance #CulturalHeritage #GlobalConnection #eminspost #eminmuseum

It’s now possible to flip through the key chapters of Barcelona’s life as a city, through the The Historic Charter of Barcelona:

Attention Barcelona people! My good friend and part of my female-only mastermind group Marusha Mozolevskaya is doing something very cool - the first ever journaling festival (yes, it's apparently a thing!). Journling isn't just about keeping a journal - it is actually one of the most powerful and safe methods to tap into your unconscious mind, release stress and understand what's really important. I've myself have been using methods proposed by her in my digital detox retreats and they do wonders. So if you are a coach, facilitator, psychologist who wants to learn new tools on how to help clients, check her event out!

🖼 🎨 Team Building Destinations: The Art Track...in Paris 🇫🇷 while the world is focused on Paris for the olympics, it's a good time for an important reminder. Paris is one of the best destinations to spark your team's creativity and foster innovation. All teams can benefit from unleashing their creativity. The very first VP who asked me to facilitate a workshop focusing on creativity was the head of the Finance department at a Wireless Communications company where I was a full-time employee. I've also facilitated with creativity workshops for engineering and HR teams. Creativity involves pushing your boundaries. For most of my life, I've expressed creativity through writing, music, acting and, sometimes, dance. Visual art was never my forte. I failed art in elementary school and did not select it as a high school elective. When I was last in Paris, instead of exploring music and theatre, I decided to put myself on the art track. Paris provides plenty of opportunities for corporate teams to explore art. I visited the Lourve twice. same Museum that focuses on impressionistic art was closer renovation so I ventured further afield to the Chateau de Versailles and Monet's House in Giverny. The students painting in the galleries and sketching in Paris' parks looked so relaxed. They it's probably so much that, when I returned to Toronto, I took a course called "Drawing for Those Who Can't" at the Royal Ontario Museum. I'll never be a professional artist but I have a basket of art supplies in my living room and I always have a sketch pad and pencils in my laptop case. Later, I completed The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron. Before I knew it I was writing again. I've written two screenplays, scripts for two TV series, and I'm working on my fourth novel. Creativity has allowed me to design and feel so will take engaging experiences and simulations for my corporate clients. I encourage corporate leaders to spark creativity and foster innovation through similar exploration at home or abroad. Enhanced creativity will improve your team's brainstorming and problem solving skills. Team members will generate new solutions and ideas for products and services. 🎇 What strategies are you using to spark creativity in your tune and Foster innovation? 🇫🇷 Have you ever taken your team to Paris? #Paris #France #innovation #creativity #teambuilding https://lnkd.in/e4Q2cDUz
