Museum 2.0

AUGUST 5, 2016

Before the MAH exhibition, those historic surfboards rested deep in the collection storage of the Bishop Museum in Hawaii. And the hippies cheered, they clapped, and they accepted ShaNaNa as part of the rollicking youth culture sweeping North America. Their music was relevant to the crowd.

Museum 2.0

SEPTEMBER 2, 2015

This summer, we opened two exhibitions at my museum that are highly relevant to local culture. Both of these exhibitions are relevant to the cultural identity of Santa Cruz. These boards connect modern-day surfers to something greater than themselves: across oceans, across cultures, across time. The rechewed meat of culture.

The writers often bring attention to subjects not yet covered by mainstream media.
