    I am looking for examples of gallery stools used by museums. It is time to replace ours. Would love pictures, links, and your feedback on what works for your organization.

    We use these ones in our gallery for young children and their families. While they look nice and are very portable, I find that they tend to tip over easily. They are also more difficult for some of our littlest visitors to climb onto to take a seat. I'm not sure what your target audience is, but if it includes a large number of young children, I'd recommend something more sturdy that doesn't tip over. Good luck!
