3D Printing Quiz

There are no limits to art and design with 3D printing. This is why 3D printing technology is becoming more and more popular among artists and small art galleries. As 3D printed art becomes cheaper to produce, art is democratised. It becomes more accessible to the average person and by that, we mean both the artist and the consumer.

In the case of museums, 3D printing technology has helped them enhance the visitor experience. Most importantly, it has made museums more accessible to all. For example, 3D printing can offer visitors a tactile experience by creating touchable versions of artworks. This allows blind people and visitors with low vision to touch and “feel” artworks.

It is important that culture is enjoyable for everyone. Exhibiting art that is accessible to all does not only benefit people with disabilities. The average visitor and art lover can also engage with art in a different way. This means that it is in the best interest of museums to become more accessible. Without barriers, everyone can benefit. That is the reason why we want to help introduce 3D printing into museums.

Thus, it is important that heritage professionals have a general understanding of 3D technology. By doing so, they can better serve museum visitors. Therefore, people can interact with the exhibits regardless of their disability.

Because 3D printing and its application in museums is relatively new. We have taken it upon ourselves to create this course. Here we present some examples and ideas for 3D printing and its various applications in the arts and culture sector.

We want heritage professionals to discover the possibilities that 3D printing technology offers. We believe that this information will be useful for them. This will help them make better and more informed decisions about what is the best choice for the kind of exhibits and disabilities they should accommodate.
