Abstract	The study of adult education has much to offer museum education, particularly from the lens of nonformal education--education that takes place outside formal educational settings. Through analysis of two case studies of nonformal education at museums (parks, historical sites, and cultural institutions), findings reveal a much more complex picture of teaching in museums than is usually recognized. They shed light on the unique context and practice of museum education that significantly impacts the museum experience. (Contains 24 notes.) (As Provided).
