I got excited looking at your post as my Doctoral Research and an article I am writing currently is both related to Museum Memories.
I wanted to share my museum memories of The Conflictorium, Ahmedabad. It's a participatory museum which is very innovative in its approach. The Museum being one of the Case studies of my research is of special interest to me. Visited Conflictorium in Dec'19 when I went for the conference where we met 😎
Loved the newness in the rawness of this museum. That's it's beauty. The history of conflicts has been displayed in a subtle way and there has been alloted areas which involves visitors to express their feelings.

My favourite parts of the museum were the Sorry Tree and the gallery where Indian Constitution is placed in a very reachable manner. While sitting beside the sorry tree, I said sorry to my own being for always putting myself second to everyone. It was a long drawn conflict which I left there and came out with a resolution to always keep my self respect above everything.
The gallery with the constitution made me realise that it's "our" constitution and we all should reach out to it to find our rights and duties as a citizen.
