Abstract
It is every museum’s goal to make a difference in their visitors, whether to make them aware of a situation such as climate change, educate about a time period, or inspire visitors to think, to feel, and to observe the world around them. The Werner Wildlife Museum strives to provide visitors these opportunities for personal growth through humanities programming.
