Subject: Invitation to join "Museums and Change" this Thursday 9/8 at 12:30pm EDT
You are cordially invited to join the conversation this Thursday, leading off with a presentation by Kathy McLean. No registration is required; just tuse the link provided below. Please note that these sessions are not recorded in the interests of openness and candor!
Museum Exhibitions We Need Now
Over the years, museums have presented some powerful, unusual, and potentially transformative exhibitions that could have advanced wider museum practice, but actually didn't. Maybe they were too far ahead of their time. Maybe not enough professionals saw them. Is the museum world ready for them now? Let's imagine brave new versions of some of these classic boundary busters. We need them more than ever if we are truly going to evolve.
Please join us on Thursday 9/8 at 12:30pm EDT 9:30 PST when Kathy McLean will present some thoughts on the need for new kinds of exhibitions. Kathy is the Principal of Independent Exhibitions (Ind-X), a museum consulting firm specializing in exhibition design, development, and management; strategic planning; visitor research and evaluation. She is co-author of the IMLS-funded book, The Convivial Museum; co-editor of the IMLS-funded book, Visitor Voices in Museum Exhibitions; co-editor of the NSF-funded book, Are We There Yet? Conversations about Best Practices in Science Exhibition Development; and author of Planning for People in Museum Exhibitions.
Hope to see you there!.
