Many museums charge for admission while others are free. Do you think the advantages of charging people for admission to museums outweigh the disadvantages?

Some museums require an access ticket whereas others are free of

charge

. There are many advantages for those museums that

charge

people even though it can harm those who cannot afford to pay to be in these kinds of places. I believe the positive ones outweigh the negatives overall. In

this

essay, both aspects will be discussed.

First

of all, museums that choose to

charge

people can select their audience, and

therefore

they avoid people who are not interested in the art, history or sculptures that they are showing as well as offer better expositions of more renowned artists,

besides

that these museums can have more money for maintenance and security,

for instance

, they can hire people to keep things tidy, clean and organized and guards to guarantee safe, considering that most of the museums have pieces of great value.

Secondly

, money from tickets can provide a better structure for museums,

such

as a restaurant, a café, bathrooms, seats, which makes the place more comfortable for the public. People are able to enjoy their favourite artists while having coffee. The strategy of having facilities inside the museums is

also

advantageous because it offers more jobs. Unfortunately,impoverished people may be excluded to enter these kinds of museums,

hence

be prevented to enjoy art and culture,

in addition

to that, museums that do not

charge

their audience are likely to be crowded all the time, damages and dirty are

also

a concern of crowded places and without money,they will probably take more time to fix things. Regarding dirty, filthy bathrooms,

for example

, are extremely uncomfortable for those who need to use it. To conclude,

although

many people who cannot pay for these museums can be excluded from these cultured installations, the advantages of charging the audience are better than the drawbacks.
