SEPTEMBER 26, 2012

The purpose of my thesis was two-fold: To research and analyze community and civic engagement practices, methods, theories and examples in other museum programs. It’s not solely about how museums can serve communities but rather what are the communities’ resources, knowledge and interests that can inform museum practice?
