The museum education proposed by art museums, because ofits specific methods and power of significance, can be a way forward for environmental education thatis worth exploring. The theory of meaningful learning can be used by both disciplines to support andachieve more meaningful, and therefore lasting, learning among people. The complementarity andsynergy between these disciplines can be established from their points of conceptual coincidence. Themain research goals of this article have been two: to study and show the intrinsic complementarity ofthese disciplines from a conceptual viewpoint, and to show how their combined strength andcomplementarity can inspire specific educational proposals for the challenges of education in thetwenty-first century. For example, those that focus on educating on the complexity of the world. Thepresentation and discussion of this conceptual framework may suggest educational instructions thatmove towards the interdisciplinary nature of environmental education, using as an educationalresource that which is housed in art museums.
