I go to a lot of museums and have been for years but my pace has accelerated in the last years. Here's something I have only recently realized: enjoying museums is really cumulative. They are pretty tough places to appreciate early on, but if you keep going you start to recognize artists, see themes, see connections and it becomes a lot more fun. Like massages, the more often you do it the more often each time benefits you.

If art leaves you cold but you suspect maybe it shouldn't just expose yourself to it more, and try to focus on a genre that seems to intrigue you, even if you aren't sure why. When I'm at a museum, I'm looking for European and American paintings and drawings from about 1850 to to about 1930. That's sort of my sweet spot.
