Who this museum visit journal is for

This journal is for museum lovers who want to remember the art, history and science they discover. It suits art students, families visiting museums with children, travelers and anyone who loves a quiet afternoon in a gallery. Writing and sketching what you see helps you look more closely and remember favorite works long after the visit. It also suits teachers planning field trips and travelers who build trips around famous galleries. A journal slows you down, so you notice details and remember why a piece moved you.

How to use your museum visit journal

Fill in a visit page for each museum. Sketch favorite pieces. Tick off museums visited and keep a wish list. Record favorite works, and save tickets. Choose a few works to study closely rather than rushing through every room, and write the title, artist and what caught your eye. Tape in tickets and maps afterward, and keep adding museums to the wish list as friends recommend them.
