5.
Support meaning-making of the works of art.
DUBLIN ARTS COUNCIL
Dublin, OH
For the exhibition The Columbus Crossing Borders Project, I designed interpretation tools to create additional entry points and make the art more accessible for visitors.
OTHER INTERPRETATION
MASS MoCA
North Adams, MA
As a Museum Educator at MASS MoCA, I had opportunities to create non-educator facilitated interpretation for visitors. For example, I designed self-guided tours for the MASS MoCA website and developed in-gallery activities on the annual Free Day.
TANG MUSEUM
Saratoga Springs, NY
As an Education Assistant at the Tang Museum, I created viewer guides to complement the exhibitions for children, families, or any visitors in the galleries.
Visitors could reflect on exhibition themes through dialogue prompted by conversation starters on chairs, or by asking and answering their own questions in bowls. Dublin Arts Council
