Thus, their influence on how museum audiences experience and ultimately learn as a result of a visit to a museum is worth investigating. While sociocultural approaches to learning are emerging as an important line of research in museums and in formal education settings, very few studies have investigated Latin Americans as museum audiences. Deeper insights about Latin American audiences’ museum experiences are yet to emerge, as this field of inquiry develops and consolidates. In this article, we review the current museum and educational research that has considered Latin American learners as its main focus of interest and discuss ways in which museums around the globe could capitalise on our current understandings of the particularities of Latin Americans as learners. An account of the history of museums in Latin America frames the discussion.
