Rubin Museum: Nicole Sandoval

Posted in Uncategorized Comments Off on Rubin Museum: Nicole Sandoval

Visiting the museum was an enjoyable experience, even though we had gotten lost along the way. I think this trip taught me more about people. It was really interesting looking into another culture, but I think there was much more to that. Our tour guide was rushing to get us out of her hair. She was not helpful at all when it came to question. It was evident that she did not enjoy the job, and that she really was not passionate at all about the museum. Instead of trying to emerge us in the experience, she told us to wander around and meet back at a certain point. Irene was the complete opposite of this women. Irene did seem to have more of an understanding, but that is not what made her a more interesting tour guide. You could tell she was genuinely interested in the pieces, she also wanted to genuinely spark our interest in something we may have not had exposure to. There is probably many times where something like this occurs. Just because someone holds a position, does not mean that they are more educated than those around them. A title proves nothing, what matters is how a person’s passion is conveyed.
