  • Public Curation As Civic Engagement: Naming Success in Participatory Curatorial Models
    Public Curation as Civic Engagement: Naming Success in Participatory Curatorial Models Amanda Stone A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts University of Washington 2014 Committee: Kris Morrissey Theresa Ronquillo Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Museology © Copyright 2014 Amanda Stone Abstract Public Curation as Civic Engagement: Naming Success in Participatory Curatorial Models Amanda Stone Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. Kris Morrissey Museology In a 2002, Mastering Community Engagement was published by the American Alliance of Museums as a “call to action” through their Museums and Community Initiative to inspire more civic-minded museum practice, envisioning the museum as an active player in the community, a safe haven, and a center for dialogue and change. (AAM) The study noted that civic engagement “…occurs when museum and community intersect – on subtle and overt ways, over time, and as an accepted and natural way of doing business.” (AAM, 9) One method museums have used to facilitate civic engagement is public curation. Although community–institution collaboration as a design process has been applied in the fields of social sciences, art, and the humanities, there is a deficit of knowledge about how to approach or measure the impact of this collaborative work in the museum industry, and the terminology or vernacular around this work is inconsistent and varied. Thus, this research attempts to articulate goals and potential indicators of success, which may be useful to museums that are exploring or assessing community collaboratives around exhibit development. The study uses qualitative research methods from the field of feminist methodology and the social sciences method of grounded theory.

  • TAS Alumni News Volume 15 Summer 2014
    TAIPEI AMERICAN SCHOOL VOLUME Summer 15 2014 TASTAS AlumniAlumni NewsNews A Message from the Superintendent hrough the lens of securing a strong foundation, establishing Toutstanding programs, recruiting and retaining the highest quality personnel, and communicating the value of the TAS experience, alumni watch their institution grow. Colin Powel, the first African American appointed as the U.S. Secretary of State, instructed, “Have a vision. Be demanding.” We have demanded a great deal to bring the vision for our students into focus. With a firm financial foundation in place, we have been able to erect beautiful, green facilities that have enhanced programs and student learning across all three divisions. The Tiger Center provides the educational resources that we have come to expect from a world class fitness center. The construction of the Black Box Theater has already enriched our performing arts program in the upper school. By moving upper school classrooms into the new buildings, we have been able to expand our middle and lower school facilities. The middle school, now with a stronger educational culture and identity, extends vertically over four floors. Like the middle school, the lower school is now characterized by its customized, dedicated learning spaces. A growth in space means a growth in programs. Most impressive is the introduction of a middle school competitive sports program. This comprehensive competitive sports program prepares our students to be capable athletes and gracious competitors at the upper school level and in life. Our programs continue to excel in other areas as well. Public speaking, serves as an example of program excellence that has grown for TAS students.

  • Section Iv. Objects for Exhibit, Interpretive Context, and Suggested Text
    SECTION IV. OBJECTS FOR EXHIBIT, INTERPRETIVE CONTEXT, AND SUGGESTED TEXT The Sonoma County Museum holds in public trust approximately 35,000 items (SCM Board of Trustees 2000:10). One of its most important and extensive collections includes photographs, artifacts, textiles, documents, and artwork bequeathed to the Museum by Song Wong Bourbeau in 1995. Song was the last remaining resident of Santa Rosa’s former Chinatown, which used to stand near the section of Santa Rosa Creek that today flows under City Hall. The assemblage consists of family heirlooms and other household items, objects from a restaurant (in business for over a century), and artifacts from the local Chinese temple. The Song Wong Bourbeau Collection of 238 objects invite us to experience a vital part of our common past while highlighting ethnic identity and cultural history. Our history as a nation is relatively short in years, which should make it easier for most of us to realize that we are a product of the past. Exposing the social institutions, beliefs, and lifeways of our diverse cultural heritage is the mission of history museums. That calls for elaborating on the way a community lives, works, plays, relates to one another, organizes to meet their needs and cope with daily living, along with recognizing their norms, values, and beliefs (King 2002:12). When an exhibit is specific to one affected community an effort needs to be made to involve them in the project. As this research proceeds, it will seek support and information from the Chinese American community. A draft manuscript will be presented to representatives of the Redwood Empire Chinese Association [RECA] and the Chinese Historical Society of America [CHSA] for their input.
