The Goals And Objectives Of The Shinnecock Museum

Douglas Crimp begins his essay by delivering a story about a librarian, Julia Van Haaftan and how she was interested in the photography organization at the Art and Architecture Division of the New York Public Library. In addition, Crimp delivers his most enlightening and meaningful point by explaining how Julia Van Haaftan is also now a “director of the Photographic Collections Documentation Project”. She discovered several lost books and photographs, which she researched, re-categorizing, and placed them under the photography or art category in the photographic collection. I found this section of the essay entertaining because it demonstrates that the history books can get lost

Quoted by Handler and Gable, critic Ada Louise Huxtable declares the newly constructed reproduction of Colonial Williamsburg as “too clean,” arguing that it “does not include the filth and stench that would have been commonplace.” (Source E) This sanitation of the truth completely misrepresents history, and the educational value greatly suffers. Conversely, the National Museum of the American Indian hopes to avoid this lack of judgment by dedicating itself to the “preservation, study, and exhibition of the life, languages, literature, history, and Arts of Native Americans.” (Source C) The main goal of the museum is to “span all major cultural areas” (C) and educate the public about and preserve the rich history of such a vast culture. The authenticity and significance of artifacts are important to representing culture and history, and the ability of these artifacts to educate should be a key factor of the selection process.

Than from there it explores the History that surrounds the Bronx Valentine Varian House. The home shows the family’s possessions found through archaeological excavations it revealed the lives of early Dutch or English settlers in the region. The home surrounds visitors with the possessions used from the old world like for example a Drafted fire place tile, Cream ware, Slipware, stem of glass, pipe bowls and stems. The home toured you around the history of America by displaying the English Colonial Rule and The American Revolution, Native American Dutch Period, Women’s work in those days followed by the items used around that time, 19th and 20th Century History and pictures that back up the history told to us. My favor part of this museum was learning about the Civil Wars United States Colored Troops. It showed a picture of 26th regiment posing on Rikers Island in 1864, how they severed in the military base for New York States 3 African American regiments in the Civil War. Approximately 4,000 African American New Yorkers fought for the Union only because congress passed two Acts allowing the enlistment of African American. For me the tour came together when the pictures showed the Bronx development from than to now. The Bronx Valentine House definitely opened my eyes to the Bronx History because before I wouldn’t have imagined all of this

A summary of your project. Identify your topic and describe what you will be looking at in terms of the topic. Include some key terms and additional questions that will guide your research.

Two non traditional methods of program funding that the XYZ Corporation can incorporate are fundraising dinners and an annual music festival. Both of these fundraising methods have the potential to raise thousands of dollars for the organization. Planning these events will be time consuming and somewhat costly, the XYZ Corporation will seek to get as much donated materials and volunteer time as possible to keep costs of the fundraising events at a minimum. The dinner will incorporate a cost per plate that is affordable yet will maximize fundraising potential. The music festival will bring publicity and positive attention to the organization as well as maximize fundraising capabilities.

This upholds the same aspect of Humanities Nebraska’s mission statement. This event is a partnership with Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service and state humanities councils nationwide (“Humanities Nebraska,” 2013). The changing exhibitions bring national history and culture to small communities within Nebraska. These exhibitions are displayed in libraries, museums, and other local organizations. Humanities Nebraska supports these exhibits by supplying events based on these traveling exhibitions (“Humanities Nebraska,” 2013). Their partnership is what makes these events memorable for the community and successful for the nonprofit organization.

A planning analysis is needed to ensure diverse financial support and implement a fundraising plan. A detailed plan provides a yearlong plan to identity potential avenues of support and assignment for staff to complete. WVMPHP appears to have not developed a strategy for annual revenue support and an analysis will target income sources. Fundraising strategies to explore can include quarterly direct mail newsletters, e-mail and social media updates. Since WVMPHP is a statewide organization events should be

Festival was brought to you by the dedication of Shinnecock museum staff and volunteers, the generousity of our donors, and the support of the Village of Southampton.

In Steven Lubar’s book, Inside the Lost Museum: Curating, Past and Present, the recurring idea that museums are “more than the sum of their parts” plays a critical role in the overall argument (329). Lubar notes many aspects that make up a museum, the collection, for example is an essential part of any museum, but the community, as well as the experiences of the patrons create a lasting museum experience. Additionally, Lubar aptly utilizes real-world examples, contemporary and historical, highlighting the work of individuals in museums and establishing a connection between past and current events. Central to this narrative is the example of the lost Jenks Museum. Lubar uses this museum to argue that museums of the past can educate museum goers

To complete this project, you should start the report with an introduction identifying the issue (e.g., evacuation intention, shelter selection decision) you aim to study for, followed by the specifications on the strategy of the research, and ended with a clearly result reporting and thorough discussions interpreting your findings. You can check the format requirements later below.

The main question of the case is was it enough what Anne Brengle did over the 11 years of work for the Museum? According to the story, the question means all actions and management changes of the New Bedford Whaling museum Executive director’s style. The Executive Director Anne Brengle faces different challenges over a period of 11 years and leads this non-profit organization (The New Bedford Whaling Museum) to improvement of its condition in every aspect – financial health, new and attractive activities, new programs and improved community interest.

Preservation took the stage in the early 19th century – although preservation efforts existed prior – when Ann Pamela Cunningham rallied America’s women to save Mt. Vernon. Over the years, the field has followed similar patterns: save the house of a significant person, recognize the site of an event, or memorialize a style of architecture. Agendas and private support characterized the origins of the preservationist’s professions; while the roles and theories behind the products morphed as time ticked along, todays modern preservation efforts rely a great deal on the support of governmental laws and programs to protect America’s treasures.

This section provides an overview of your findings. This section should be no more than half a page at the most but a paragraph that is about 6-8 sentences is about the right length. This summarizes everything you wrote about in your report. This is also the conclusion for your report. If a business person didn’t have time to read an entire report or business plan, the Executive Summary should be the overview of the information.

Today’s visit to the museum was exciting! Having the opportunity to see John Simpsons vision for the museum in its current state, and knowing we could influence the design is a golden opportunity from my perspective. What this signaled was Amsterdam, when talking of flow and influence of language and historical content. I knew when I first saw the Seuss advertisement, I had my eye on a few of them. However, as a dyslexic person writing, and applying for all three, last minute I wrote for research on his life.
