| Abstract: | This paper aims to identify the reasons for the modernization of working with museum visitors. Today, in the context of globally imposed restrictive measures triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic, the issue of introducing new and revising the existing forms of cultural and educational activities of museums has become more acute than ever before. New formats of work with visitors such as educational thematic routes, workshops, “behind the scenes”, games and quests, theater performances, meetings with experts of art and science are steadily gaining popularity. The article presents an attempt to determine the reasons for the modernization of the museum work with visitors on the example of publications of the professional journal of the International Council of Museums (ICOM) - “ICOM News”. There is a range of selected articles devoted to the forms of working with visitors in museums in various countries (there are 367 articles dedicated to this issue). As a result of the analysis of these publications, the main reasons for the emergence, development, and modernization of forms of work with the museum audience were identified. |

| Abstract: | The music of vocal-instrumental ensemble "Pesniary" is recognized in Belarus as a cultural heritage that must be saved and protected. In this paper, the approach of critical heritage studies is used to show, how this meaning of heritage is created, what heritage discourses exist in Belarus and how they constitute different meanings of heritage. The focus of the paper is on the confrontation and interrelation between the authorized, self-authorized and unauthorized heritage discourses. As well, the use of heritage for the constitution of national identity narratives is analyzed. The key points of the preservation and management of heritage in Belarus are the establishment of the heritage continuation and authenticity, exclusion of contradictory interpretations of the heritage, its interrelation to the particular version of the past, and hence the particular identity narrative. One of the main actors in the authorized heritage discourse is the government that puts efforts into recognizing and funding the one version of the heritage that corresponds with the state's cultural policy. Self-authorized and unauthorized heritage discourses use the "Pesniary" heritage to express national components of the collective identity and rejuvenate the past. |
