Find a Museum on the Web

• The British Museum: "Travel the World - visit the British Museum".
• Smithsonian Museum: this site is the hub for the Smithsonian's 16 (!) different museums.
• Getty Museum:Admission is free but you have to book in advance. I've been here - the views alone are spectacular, let alone the art.
• Museum of Modern Art: Along with the great exhibits, you can now listen to MOMA programs on the Web.
• Royal Ontario Museum: "From mummies in Ancient Egypt and armour in Medieval Europe, to the biodiversity of Canada’s hardwood forests, there’s something new to discover around every corner."
• Louvre Museum: Just like the real Louvre, you could spend hours at this website.
• Philadelphia Museum of Art: Features an interactive floor plan, exhibits, and more - you can even subscribe to the home page via RSS.
• Chicago Art Institute: I used to go here every Tuesday when going to school in Chicago (it was free!).
• Guggenheim Museum: One of the most well-designed sites I've come across; great art, too.
