  • 1.  RE: Museums and Food Insecurity

    As a follow-up to my post of a couple of weeks ago, I want to share this video made by Pete Watson, director of Howell Living History Farm in Hopewell Township, NJ, and a past president of the Association for Living History, Farm and Agricultural Museums (ALHFAM).

    Pete made the video as part of his presentation at the virtual symposium of the International Association of Agricultural Museums (AIMA) on November 14th on what Howell Living History Farm has been doing since this past April to help area food banks and food pantries supply much-needed food to those in need during this difficult time.
     
    Activities like these are undertaken by ALHFAM institutional members and their staffs across North America in support of their communities and neighbors.

    Megan, I suspect this line of inquiry may be related to the work I am doing on decision-making in museums. I'd appreciate any insights you gather. I'll share the analysis of the survey I sent out earlier in a few weeks.
