  • 1.  Exhibit case advice

    Posted 01-11-2018 01:08 PM
    Hello all, I am Alena Renner with the American Civil War Museum, and we have a conundrum.  
    This is primarily an advice listserv, not a supply listserv.  
    Where might I join and post about the hoard of exhibit cases that my museum is getting rid of ahead of our move?
    Please let me know an appropriate vehicle for that sort of thing!

    Probably the best place to "advertise" your cases is through your state museum association.    The Virginia Association of Museums seems to have a number of ways to notify your colleague (vamuseums.org).

    Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Please let the Small Museums Association know too. They have many members in your area that can use the boost. They will share the message....please feel free to drop my name :-)

    Hi Alisa:

    Give me a jingle today after 11:30 CT.  We have an idea that works.
