Museum Selfie Day on the third Wednesday in January invites the general public to go to a museum and take a selfie. The day promotes awareness of great collections of work stored in museums. Museum Selfie Day combines the ancient history of the world with the modern trend of taking selfies.
Started by London blogger Mar Dixon, the Museum Selfie Day trend has gone worldwide and spawned a plethora of creative posts on social media ever since. Mar Dixon, a project coordinator and enthusiast of museums, came up with the idea in 2015 after visiting several museums with her daughter.
