BEWARE
RUDE,
DISCRIMINATING
AND
KIDS'
UNFRIENDLY
VENUE
We
have
visited
this
museum
with
3
kids
(6,
8
year
olds
and
6
month
old)
today.
L2:
Although
we
have
stayed
behind
faded
(almost
invisible
lines)
and
warned
our
children
to
stay
behind
the
lines,
staff
member
on
L2
has
suggested
that
we
better
off
going
to
the
next
level
as
there
is
one
artwork
that
can
be
touched
by
kids.
Facial
expression,
tone
and
the
message
showed
how
unwelcome
we
were
as
ethnical
minorities
or
parents
with
young
children.
L3:
As
we
went
up
to
the
next
level
young
lady
has
shouted
at
us
to
stay
behind
the
line.
I
have
informed
her
that
as
she
can
see
we
have
not
crossed
the
line
(again
the
line
was
faded).
She
has
ignored
my
feedback
and
as
we
continued
to
discuss
the
piece
of
artwork,
she
shouted
at
us
again
and
again
in
front
of
other
patrons
that
we
should
not
cross
the
line.
I
have
repeated
to
her
that
as
she
could
see
we
have
not
crossed
the
line,
however
she
continued
treating
us
with
utmost
disrespect
and
called
her
manager.
Her
manager
said
that
her
staff
member
does
not
agree
with
our
feedback
about
the
staff
member
and
hence
he
will
disregard
it.
At
the
same
time
after
shouting
at
us
the
first
time
the
lady
has
kindly
offered
to
provide
background
to
the
artwork
to
men
with
Caucasian
appearance
and
was
very
kind
and
respectful
with
them.
Management
of
the
museum
shall
consider
metrics
to
prevent
staff
discrimination
of
ethnic
minorities
and
parents
with
young
children.
Feedback
on
the
content
of
the
museum:
a)
space
is
not
well
utilized,
i.e.
there
are
handful
of
exhibits
and
very
few
eye-catching
ones.
b)
there
is
no
background
as
to
meaning
of
the
artwork/ideas
conveyed
by
the
author.
c)
names
of
paintings
are
not
clearly
identifiable
if
present
(due
to
staff
attitude
noted
above
we
did
not
have
a
chance
to
read
description
until
the
end
as
we
were
rushed
to
leave
each
Level).
d)
some
content
may
be
interpreted
as
depicting
extreme
violence
(murdered
pregnant
female).
e)
there
are
no
activities
for
kids
supporting
their
interest
in
arts
unlike
most
of
other
museums.
This
further
supports
how
unwelcome
kids
are
in
this
museum.
