I learned from the Railroad Museum that today, January 21st, is “National Museum Selfie Day.” (Who knew?) I searched the term on Google and found that, yes, museums all over the country are encouraging people to visit and take photos of themselves with museums as their backdrop.
I’m all in favor of visiting museums, so FYI, here are the current special exhibits at our museums (plus a couple that open soon):
