Abstract
This paper is not about conservation or preservation techniques, although those are extremely important and crucial for any art environment to survive in perpetuity. This paper is about tourism and art environments. More specifically, I ask the question, can cultural heritage route tourism be used to help art environments and if so, how? Cultural heritage routes bundle similarly themed places on a map or brochure. There are many possible different themes. The theme may be geographic and centered on a specific area, or follow a specific road. Routes have been created for food and drink, like wine trails in California's Napa Valley, pointing out all the wineries of a specific varietal. Some trails cover historical sites, like civil war battlefields.
