    A History of the American Museum

    A History of the American Museum

    In order to understand where museums are going, first we need to understand where they've been. In this episode, we speak to Majorie Schwarzer, professor of museum studies at the University of San Francisco. Schwarzer is the author of Riches, Rivals and Radicals: 100 Years of Museums in America, which chronicles the transformation of museums in the United States. In this conversation we discuss the colonization, the professionalization of the museum field, and the power of objects.

    On Storytelling

    On this episode, we talk about how museums tell stories. We’ll learn how museums are starting to talk less like institutions and more like humans. We’ll talk to Erich Brubaker about how Museum Hack is revamping museum tours to create some space for fun and whimsy. And we’ll hear from Theresa Bembnister from the Akron Art Museum about their work to treat the gallery as a giant conversation starter. And finally, we’ll chat with Kimberly Drew, curator and former social media manager for the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
