Title: Museum-making as serious leisure
La facción de museos como ocio serio (serious leisure)
Facció de museus com a lleure seriós (serious leisure)
Author: Moncunill Piñas, Mariona  
Abstract: Amateur museums are independent museums made as leisure projects outside professional frameworks. This paper attempts to distinguish museum making as a leisure activity from professional museums and from collecting and to broadly identify some implications arising from their relations as questions of interest for future research. To do so, I rely on Stebbins theory of serious leisure (1992) and on some literature on institutionalism, collecting and museology, specially Martin¿s research on popular collecting and its relation to professional museums (1999).
Keywords: serious leisure
museology
collecting
institutionalism
