It’s cool because of fun stuff happening, and it’s crunchy because of leaves on the ground 🙂
I have been doing a lot of stuff over the past couple of weeks as I am trying to get my hands on anything I can before the internship comes to an end. Something unexpected happened right before fall break, though – I got to start working on my own exhibit!
A display case near the entrance was cleared for me, and I was given the task of putting together a small exhibit on holiday postcards. This involved everything from research to picking out the cards to creating labels to be put on the wall above the case. It has been such an awesome experience, and it was so fulfilling to see my days of work come together.
For my remaining time at the museum, I will finalize everything in my exhibit and make sure that I understand everything I want to about museum work.
