V Pase Introduction The American Association of Museums defines a museum as, a legally organized not-for-profit institution or government entity; be essentially educational in nature; have a formally stated mission; with one full-time paid professional staff person who has museum knowledge... present regularly scheduled programs and exhibits that use and interpret objects for the public according to accepted standards; have a formal and appropriate program of documentation ,care and use of collections and/or tangible objects; have a formal and appropriate program of maintenance and presentation of exhibits.' Because each museum presents different information, each develops its own interpretive methods and techniques. Anthropology and natural history museums, for example, frequently use signs and subtle gallery planning to guide visitors through the material. Museums for science and technology are now moving to discovery techniques also called experiential learning. In these cases visitors manipulate exhibits to "discover" the scientific principles involved. Historical museums cannot have their programs easily categorized. Depending on the available resources and the material presented, they use a wide variety of techniques. Generally, historical societies with a museum are presenting the history of a community and use the gallery techniques of an anthropology museum. This suits well since the material presented is anthropological in nature. Museum Accreditation Criteria and Characteristics, American Association of Museums, October 22, 1997, pp. 1-2. Page Historic sites tend to be split. Some sites use the gallery technique, although this has drawbacks since the spaces can not be arranged according to how people learn, but remain in their historic configuration. Also, historical sites may use guided tours with a lecture format; this type of presentation seems to be limited to nature walks and historic sites. Other sites use the discovery techniques similar to those in science museums. These are often called "living history museums'". In these museums interpreters recreate tasks which occurred in the setting at the time being presented. This method derived from experimental anthropology and archeology where scientists -- upon deciding from fragments how a process occurred — would duplicate the process to prove their theories. Educational theory and techniques are constantly undergoing revision, and the museum community attempts to revise its programming to offer the best educational experience. This requires looking at all possible techniques even those that may not at first appear to suit the museum. This is especially true of historic sites. Past techniques have been chosen to help protect and preserve the site, but as conservation measures and educational techniques change the interpretation should also change. The number of museums using the discovery or experiential techniques has been growing across the country. Including these methods in more historic sites should be carefully considered. Discovery techniques offer many educational benefits and several techniques exist and can be adapted to a site. This paper will look at the benefits and varieties of this technique and then look at how it can be applied to a specific site. The Captain Frederick Pabst Mansion in Milwaukee, Wisconsin provides a case study for the development of a new interpretive approach. However, no interpretation is possible without a full understanding of the site: thus the first chapter documents the history of the Page 2 mansion. Next, this paper examines the use of discovery techniques in interpretation and an explanation of the approach suggested for the mansion. Lastly, the approach is applied to the mansion. Page 3 Chapter One; The Captain Frederick Pabst Mansion The Captain Frederick Pabst Mansion is situated just on the edge of downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Built between 1890 and 1892, the mansion has Flemish Renaissance detailing. Captain Frederick Pabst built it as a home for his family

Between 1880 and 1920, these groups gained public interest in their own way. The liquor interests defended their industries against politicians, religious leaders, and social reformers, but ultimately failed. While current historical scholarship links the different liquor industries together, the beer industry constantly worked to distinguish itself from other alcoholic beverages.

  • Archbishop John J. Williams
    Record Group I.06.01 John Joseph Williams Papers, 1852-1907 Introduction & Index Archives, Archdiocese of Boston Introduction Biographical Sketch Scope and Content Content List (A-Z) Subject Index Introduction The John Joseph Williams papers held by the Archives of the Archdiocese of Boston span the years 1852-1907. The collection consists of original letters and documents from the year that Williams was assigned to what was to become St. Joseph’s parish in the West End of Boston until his death 55 years later. The papers number approximately 815 items and are contained in 282 folders arranged alphabetically by correspondent in five manuscript boxes. It is probable that the Williams papers were first put into some kind of order in the Archives in the 1930s when Fathers Robert h. Lord, John E. Sexton, and Edward T. Harrington were researching and writing their History of the Archdiocese of Boston, 1604-1943. At this time the original manuscripts held by the Archdiocese were placed individually in folders and arranged chronologically in file cabinets. One cabinet contained original material and another held typescripts, photostats, and other copies of documents held by other Archives that were gathered as part of the research effort. The outside of each folder noted the author and the recipient of the letter. In addition, several letters were sound in another section of the Archives. It is apparent that these letters were placed in the Archives after Lord, Sexton, and Harrington had completed their initial arrangement of manuscripts relating to the history of the Archdiocese of Boston. In preparing this collection of the original Williams material, a calendar was produced.

  • Ordinary Time
    ORDINARY TIME January 18, 2015 WHAT’S THIS? Between the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord and Ash Wednesday, we celebrate Ordinary Time. Ordinary does not mean plain. Ordinary Time is called ordinary because the weeks are numbered. The Latin word ordinalis, which refers to numbers in a series, stems from the Latin word ordo from which we get the English word order. Thus Ordinary Time is in fact the ordered life of the Church, the period in which we live our lives neither in feasting (as in Christmas or Easter Season) or in more severe penance (as in Advent and Lent), but in watchful expectation of the Second Coming of Christ. Over the next few weeks, we will be experiencing the beginning of Jesus’ ministry from his baptism, to calling his disciples, and early healing miracles; The liturgical color of Ordinary Time is green, the color of growth and hope; The banners symbolize multi-colored stain glass windows using liturgical colors throughout the seasons. Beginning next week, we will describe the interior design of our church, such as the symbols used on the altar. May 31, 2015 WHAT’S THIS? Ordinary Time We now return to counting or numbering the weeks, not days, of the liturgical year. Ordinary Time, which will take us through the summer and fall, comprises the thirty or so weeks that are not marked by major feasts. As we have stated before, the naming of this liturgical time is from the Latin word “ordo” which refers to a counting or numbering and an order.
