Should museums and art galleries be free of charge for the general public, or should a charge, even a voluntary charge be levied for admittance? What is your opinion?

To begin

, nowadays the entrants are charged in some

museums

and art

galleries

while

in others, the

entrance

is completely free.

According to

my point of view, I think people should be charged a fair

entrance

fee in

such

public

places

. First and foremost, most of the time, public

museums

and art

galleries

are maintained by the government.

Therefore

, a significant amount of money will be needed to maintain

such

places

up to the preferred standard.

For instance

, in some

museums

, free entry only grants access to more general sections and a fixed-priced ticket need to be taken in order to look at more important or special structures.

Moreover

,

this

will add more value to the place when an

entrance

ticket is taken.

This

could be either a permanent amount or a voluntary charge.

On the other hand

, some people say that

,

such

public areas should be completely free of charge.

Although

,

this

could be true as arts should be freely available for everyone to enjoy despite their economic situation.

Also

, the value and respect for

such

places

might get decreased

as a result

of not charging any amount of money from people.

Also

, as

museums

and art

galleries

are maintained mostly with public money, it will be difficult to keep washrooms or cafes

accordingly

without getting any funds from the guests. In conclusion, I believe that

,

public

places

like

museums

and

galleries

should charge a fair

entrance

fee to the visitors for the betterment of the organization.

Furthermore

,

this

will help in its

further

developments and improvements benefiting the guests in return.
