personally love looking at museums and learning about past history. Looking at this website regarding the Jim Crow Museum, I feel that this museum provides a plethora of items and exhibits to provide the onlooker with accurate information about what occurred to blacks throughout history. This was a horrible time in history when blacks were not seen as equals and were not given many rights, if any. With that being said, I feel that some of the exhibits and items in this museum might provide “mixed feelings”

Exhibitions are narrative tools which museums and other public institutions assemble to inform, engage and inspire their visitors. The exhibitions are developed using variety of communicative process which generates visitor learning and interpretation on various levels. The understanding of the message largely depends on effective visitor engagement and participation. It is not about ‘what’ you present but how to present it. Each visitor develops their own interpretation based on prior knowledge

went to the Waterloo Regional Museum located in the city of Kitchener, Ontario. The museum scrutinizes the First Nations people, European settlement at the start of the 1800, the manufacturing peak of the 1900`s and the high sector boom of recent years. Many of the historical artifacts and paintings reminded me of some of the themes discussed in the Discovering the Humanities course. The story of human social development as displayed in the Waterloo Regional Museum focuses on the transition to European

Dickenson AAD 410 Winter 2017 Lane County Historical Museum On February 7th we visited the Lane County Historical Museum. Faith Kreskey, the exhibits curator, facilitated the tour, and gave us an inside look at her job and the challenges of the museum. Topics included: staffing, collections care, facilities, budgeting, the museum’s recent history, community partnerships, and exhibits. One theme I kept coming up against was the idea of a history museum. In the context of a mid-size western American county

The Hill-Stead Museum displayed the large art collection of Alfred Pope and his daughter, Theodate Pope. Alfred was the owner of the successful Cleveland Malleable Iron Company, which is where he earned his fortune. They manufactured a modernized, stronger, form of iron and then began producing railway couplings to hold train cars together. The business was extremely successful, as was the owner, Pope. The building is grand and decorated lavishly, filled with valuable art from across the world. In

Because of the nature of the work, these stories were often untold until many years after the war. In such, this museum tries to exemplify the patriotism, struggle, and contribution the workers at Bletchley Park experienced during the Second World War. One point myself and several others in my group were curious about, included

The Mint Museum at Randolph is located in Charlotte’s Eastover neighborhood. It was once part of the United States Treasury Department: a mint. In 1936 it became the state’s first art museum. It houses a collection of cozy galleries to display everything from textiles, pottery, ceramics, glass and decorative arts. The exhibit I viewed showcased works from three generations of artists: Newell Convers Wyeth (patriarch), Andrew Wyeth (son) and Jamie Wyeth (grandson). ‘Harbor Monhegan’ was created in

“Katie, would you like to go to a museum?” Dad asked. Everyone who knew him would know that he loves museums. And I’m fine with them as long as it’s not like the common history museums. He raised his hand and pointed. When I followed his finger, I saw a building, resting on the side of a mountain. “What could be in there?” I asked myself. Even though it looked a little unstable, it could be an amazing place. “Yes!” I squealed. *** As we walked toward the museum, I spotted tiny, yellow bees
