This photo, taken a few weeks ago at the Royal Ontario Museum by ROMKids Assistant Coordinator/force of nature Kiron Mukherjee, captures a perfect museum moment.

Liz Butler is a high school teacher and artist who regularly draws what she sees at the museum - and the ROM has been sharing her marvellous work for well over a year. In the picture above, her activity has clearly inspired someone else to sketch what they see.
