It's my second week as the Executive Director at The Museum of Art & History in Santa Cruz, CA, and boy is my everything tired. And that's just the fun stuff. Yes, I feel that museum workers should be paid and paid well for their efforts. Ever wanted to build a museum website from scratch? Let me be frank.

Last Friday night, my museum hosted a fabulous (in my biased opinion) event called Race Through Time. It was a local history urban scavenger hunt that sent teams of 2-5 people out into the city to track down as many historic checkpoints as they could over the course of an evening. Late night mixers at museums for young adults.

I like to ask myself this question periodically, challenging myself to find substantive ways for visitors to contribute to our museum. And when I think back on the past year, some of the most magical things that have happened at the museum have NOT been designed by us. We don't have to convince them that it's their museum.

As a kid, I was saturated by symphony performances and choral music. You gravitated toward the museum, zoo, gallery, symphony, cultural management organization because of your roots. Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh created a Summer Adventure program. My dad was a conductor and composer, my mom his accompanist. Be creative.

This week, the Denver Art Museum (DAM) opened a new temporary exhibition called The Psychedelic Experience , featuring rock posters from San Francisco in the heyday of Bill Graham and electric kool-aid. It is an incredible museum experience. The visitor is given a copy of her poster and the museum keeps a copy as well.

There have been some fun semantic jousting matches recently on the ASTC listserv about the difference between science museums and science centers. And earlier last month, the Museum of Television and Radio announced a name change to the Paley Center for Media. Museum means different things in different markets.
