  • 1.  Nature Center Collaboration

    Posted 02-07-2023 02:47 PM
    Hello all! 
    I'm the Operations Supervisor for a Nature Center in West Tennessee and I'm looking to collaborate with other like-minded professionals about increasing guest satisfaction, new technologies, projects, and any other ideas we could throw around that may be working for your museum. We are always looking outside the box to increase visitation and if you would like to collaborate with me and or start a great conversation please reply and I would love to join your network!!

    Hi Lee,

    You may be familiar with the Seek app by iNaturalist (a joint initiative of the California Academy of Sciences and the National Geographic Society). We just added a graphic station to our Amazing Pollinators exhibit (with iNaturalist's consent) that invites visitors to download Seek and try it on photos inside, and then take it outside and identify species anywhere. Instant interaction with nature and Free!

    I'd be happy to share the graphic layout if you'd like to create your own version. We chose flower and pollinator images that the app clearly identified.
