I have been hard at work for the past few weeks conducting researching from home information related to the French & Indian War and how it impacted Botetourt County and the surrounding local area.
During the days I have been able to attend the internship in person, I have mostly been continuing accessioning items as well as helping Ashley move items to and from the museum’s storage unit. A highlight of the past few weeks was being able to oversee on altering an existing exhibit and making my own changes to it which was very nice. I learned today how to assign object numbers to tailored objects through sewing as well which was enjoyable.
