Best Facebook Friend
The Walters Art Museum
Published: September 22, 2010
Facebook isn’t the most enlightening stop on your daily travels through the web. But, you’re there anyway, so it’s nice to have a “friend” that’s posting more than cameraphone pictures of their night out and links to Huffington Post articles. The Walters Art Museum posts a mix of museum news—behind-the-scenes pictures of exhibition installations, events and the popular “Art of the Day” from the museum’s vast digital collection—and links to other things going on in the art world. While you’re shamefully keeping tabs on old high school friends or, worse, ex-romantic partners, it’s nice to come across a Greek coin or Russian drinking cup and realize what’s really worth your time. And, because the art is all from the Walters, you can go see it yourself.
