Abstract

This paper aims to analyse challenges and perspectives related to NFTs that Polish museums would need to consider regarding their activities, as described in art. 2 of the Act on Museums of 21 November 1996. These activities include collecting, maintaining, securing, and exhibiting artwork as well as conducting educational and research activities. Therefore, one must con-sider whether NFTs are a long-term opportunity for museums to fulfill their goals and activities or a temporary solution providing financial aid during the post-pandemic crisis. In this paper, the author describes the importance of NFTs for the art world and quotes examples of museums that already collect and exhibit NFTs or organise events about them. The paper also includes the results of a survey conducted among Polish museum professionals to obtain their opinions on this matter.
