Museums struggle to meet the educational needs of its diverse patrons. Aimed at museum educators, Multiculturalism in Art Museums Today seeks to marry museums and critical multicultural education theory. It reveals how the union of museums and critical multiculturalism yields more equitable educational practices and guides museum educators to address misrepresentation, exclusivity, accessibility and educational inequality.
Multiculturalism in Art Museums Today is hopeful and inspiring, as it identifies and commends the positive and effective practices that some museum educators have enacted in an effort to be inclusive. Museum educators are at the front-line, interacting with publics, and therefore, can be the real avant-garde of change and modeling critical multicultural behavior and practices.
