Quentin's Weeknotes 7/31/22-8/6/22

This Week:

• We de-installed all the exhibits from our main gallery, to make way for a new exhibit entitled “Front Row Center: Icons of Rock, Blues, and Soul”. We’re setting it up now and we’re really excited about it!
• I printed and delivered the panels that tell the story of John W. Quinney and the repatriation of his regalia to the Stockbridge-Munsee Community.
• I finished reading the excellent Lovecraft Anthology “Wonder and Glory Forever” edited by Nick Mamatas. I’ve read a LOT of Lovecraft-inspired anthologies in my life, and this was one of the best. The stories use Lovecraft’s mythologies and ideas as set-pieces for broader things. I particularly liked Michael Cisco’s eerie “Translation” about a scholarly couple who are trying to unravel an encoded egyptian text from a lost Pharoah.
