Museums love to share their photos. What about yours?
Whether an event, a programming activity, or a prized object, we’re always eager to pass our snaps around to our friends and colleagues like proud parents. There are a number of different platforms that have waxed and waned in popularity over the years, and we’re interested to know where Canadian museums post their photos.
Flickr? Instagram? Picassa? What’s your photo sharing platform of choice? We’re working on our lists of Canadian museums who have photo sharing accounts. As always, please let us know if you know of any that are not listed.
We also encourage you to browse this list and friend, fan, or follow any of these institutions. All told, it’s all about building community, right?
