The main difference between art galleries and museums is that museums displays the art and only for viewing. While galleries also shows art but also sells the art to interested and wealthy individuals.
MUSEUMS
Art museums are building that collect, preserve and research objects of historical, scientific and artistic valueas well as provide social and educational services. Museums collect and care these objects for their value and making them view able to the public. Museums are said to be able to 'bring the past to life' as they show different periods of our history. They also enable visitors to feel and see the past through this objects.
Museums are mostly free of charge and free to be viewed in public. This is because most museums are funded by the government, foundations and donors that generously donate and support the museum without profit.
