Museum 2.0

NOVEMBER 2, 2011

We're seeking great folks for public programs, participatory exhibit design, online marketing, 3D design, and whatever else you might have to offer. I had a bit of a wakeup call about internships last month at an "emerging leaders" lunch event at the Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums conference. I wanted freedom and responsibility.

I'm working on a personal project (slowly) to open a cafe/bar venue that is also a design incubator for participatory exhibits.

Like a lot of organizations, my museum struggles with two conflicting goals: The museum should be for everyone in our community. At the Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History , we''re approaching this challenge through a different lens: social bridging. And rarely the twain shall meet. Why fight it?

But this job is really important to the future of our museum, and I’m hoping that you or someone you know might be a great fit for it.
