This Week:

We held our opening reception for our newest exhibit, “Velocity and Position: The Human Figure in Motion and at Rest” at the Yager Museum on Thursday. It was a great reception, with food, good conversation, and a live dance performance! I’m really proud of the exhibit and of all the people who worked so hard to get it up on looking so great.
In MUST252, we talked about Native American pottery from the Northeastern United States, as well as house forms and settlement patterns.
We welcomed a number of classes to the Museum for tours about Native American objects, wearable art, and more.
I think that I finally got the Museum’s Fall work study schedule figured out. I always forget that, once the semester starts, managing the Museum’s staff (interviewing, hiring, training and scheduling) is a full time job in and of itself.
