The key today for museums seems to get families visiting and a younger generation all together. Many have new visitor interest breaking off after the old regular customer generation. I agree that many "upgraded" museums loose their former charm and glory and feel like plastic including museum shops with terrible kitsch and cheap fast food at high prices on offer while exhibitions sometimes get remodelled and woke updated up to same sex restrooms.
To move ahead museums will need visitors This is why they need to be able and permitted to adapt somehow. I agree that not many have found the right way to do it. Old Warden has a great base to start from including the "green" part with farm and animals and the landmark collection with the old aerodrome and active flying. I wish them the very best. If somebody can do it they should hopefully.
