At a museum in Novi Sad, Serbia...
Me: Hi, I'd like a ticket please?
Curator: Oh, it's free. (Shows me the way into the exhibition space) Please, enjoy the artworks.
Me: Thanks!
After I'm done with the exhibits, I return to the main lobby and browse postcards at the information desk.
Curator: (Appears from another room) Please take them, they're free.
Me: Really?
Curator: Yes. (smiles)
I pick the cards I want. Then I turn towards the curator..
Me: OK, so the exhibition was free, and the cards were free..are the paintings in there free too? Can I take one too?
Curator: (Roars with laughter) Of course! Help yourself!

ReplyDeleteI would have but he distracted me into leaving the museum quickly to make it to the gallery across the street where, according to him, they have a wider collection of art. :)
