Tomorrow (Monday) will be the last day that I can submit labels for the exhibit. It’s because the exhibit, named Tech Savvy, officially goes out July 23rd. I only have two more assigned labels to do, though, so it shouldn’t be too hard to get them done. Information about the exhibit was covered in the Museum of Arts and Sciences newsletter. The front cover emphasizes the exhibit with a phonograph on display and the words “Tech Savvy: Home Technology from the 1890s-1990s” written beside it. We actually have technology from the 2000s, like an iMac, which will be in the exhibit that will show “the future” aspect of technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The opportunity I had to get to work alongside this curation project has been so much fun. I’m so incredibly happy that I’ve had this opportunity, too, because knowing that I want to work in museums but now exactly knowing where (curation, education, etc.), getting a bunch of different experiences is exactly what I need. I’d never expect that I’d have this much fun doing a curation project, but it’s made me consider looking more in that direction for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Something cool which popped up from my position here at MOAS is that in this summer newsletter, they have a section where they highlight their interns. There’s only one intern per department, so there’s me in the education department and one intern in the curation department, and we each got to turn in a photo of ourselves, as well as a paragraph about ourselves. These feature pretty early on in the newsletter and it’s super neat! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
