Salem Museum Post 3

July 8, 2021 by nmma

I worked through my 4th week at the Salem Museum. The picture is of a side project I worked on last week. It is a small exhibit in the lobby, dealing with baseball I worked on all the aspects of the exhibit, from the research to the setup to the writing. Of course, I was given some pointers from the staff, and I believe it is a much better final product because of it.

The whole thing had to fit into a small glass case, which made it a challenge to fit everything in. Minor league baseball was a subject I knew absolutely nothing about, so it was interesting to look into it. Luckily, I had the museums extensive archives to help research and construct the exhibit.
