whether or not it is better that

.There are several advantages and disadvantages concerning charging an

admission

fee

which I will try to explain. In general, I believe that

museums

and galleries should

charge

a

fee

to visitors but the amount should be arranged according to the person’s situation. What I mean is that there should be a standard

fee

for regular persons as well as special reduced

fees

for students, small children, disabled humans and/or other types of financially vulnerable

people

. The reason for a reduced

fee

is that a maximum amount of

people

are able to enjoy these cultural activities because everybody has the right to experience cultural enrichment. Now I will explain why I think charging an

admission

fee

is that important. The main reason is that

will ensure that the museum or gallery will have enough funds to make sure that it stays in

then

in the end nobody will be able to enjoy these cultural riches. The second reason is that if their funds will hopefully enlarge that it will give them the possibility to buy more

art

or historical pieces for their gallery. That way they can keep expanding and will be able to safeguard our cultural inheritance. The main disadvantage, despite the existence of reduced
