With reopening on the horizon for many museums, what is one creative institution doing to get people in the door? @DiscoverAtEP in Kansas has built "a Rube Goldberg contraption that goes through 40,000 square feet of the exhibit space"! #musetech https://bit.ly/2ZC1NQv

An important and very understated public history initiative has been going on for years at the Smithsonian's @MuseumOnMainSt program, collecting stories from regular people about life in rural communities. They are STILL gathering stories almost 10 years later! #dh #storytelling

We've partnered with the Smithsonian's @MuseumOnMainSt program to help share stories from everyday people, in Baltimore and well beyond. It's an effort to help people understand each other just a little better through #storytelling. #digitalHumanities https://soundcloud.com/beherestories/friends-and-family-in-dobbs-ferry-new-york

How are museums in the U.K. responding to the Black Lives Matter movement? "It is a matter of respect and being treated equally. If you steal people's heritage you're stealing their psychology..." #museums #repatriation https://bbc.in/2C4HByE

"People are tired of myths and singular heroes and seek complex truths in new symbols that don’t ignore the losers or the forgotten underbelly of history." #museumsAreNotNeutral https://bit.ly/31MCM88
