Results: They present that Instagram was used as a recurring tool in the researched period and brought several positive results listed in the article for communication, interaction and fulfillment of the educational function of the Art Museum of the UFC with its users. Conclusions: Museums, while equipment that enable the interaction of users with diverse cultures, have adapted to the conditions arising from the health crisis of Covid-19, which raises reflections of restructuring the role of such units while essential to the education of the individual.
