And this works pretty well in science museums, where designers talk about "hardening" exhibits to withstand the more aggressive touchers among us. At the museum of art and history where I work, we are grappling with the question of how to help people enjoy themselves while keeping the art and artifacts safe. Focus on family audiences.

The magic isn't by design.
