The “museum”, with its oversized novelty “exhibits” that include a gigantic pool of plastic sprinkles, has proven traction with the Insta-craving crowd. What is proving is that tourists have access to the Museum whenever they may roam. Though, you may be wondering, Bob Cut you just wrote a story about the subjectivity of the concept of a “museum”—well don’t worry, gang, they beat us to the punch-ish…
In their words, “a museum in our opinion celebrates creativity, passion, history, innovators and innovations, and we created Museum of Ice Cream in this spirit. While we are neither a non-profit nor an official museum, we are built upon the foundation of sharing and celebrating imagination.” Mmkay.
Also you should be aware that the $38 entry price still stands and won’t be changing anytime in the near future. So for those who’ve wanted to go but didn’t have time nor a good reason, hey now you can.
