[BCMA] BCMA Webinar #2 - Activate Your Exhibition

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Hello,



The BCMA is excited to invite you to the second instalment of our monthly
webinar series, presented in partnership with the Royal BC Museum and
Archives!  Join colleagues from around the province on May 16 for “Activate
Your Exhibition,” presented by the Beaty Biodiversity Museum’s Yukiko
Stranger-Galey and Derek Tan.



This webinar also falls on day 3 of BC Museums Week 2017
<http://museumsassn.bc.ca/professional-development/upcoming-events/bc-museums-week/bc-museums-week-schedule/>.
We will be exploring Cultural Exchange and Museum Partners throughout the
day – what better way to participate than joining this webinar and learning
from your colleagues?



*Webinar Description:*

How do you encourage participatory interactions with your exhibit? Using
examples from the Beaty Biodiversity Museum’s temporary exhibitions, this
webinar will describe a suite of simple, self-led, and scalable activities
that can be easily incorporated into exhibits when big-budget interactives
or educator-led programming aren’t available. What worked, what didn’t, how
did we build it, and how much did it cost?



Yukiko Stranger-Galey is the Exhibits & Design Manager for the Beaty
Biodiversity Museum at the University of British Columbia, where she
develops exhibits that celebrate the wonder and diversity of the natural
world. The opportunity to share the stories of the people, organisms, and
objects in our world inspires her every day.



Derek Tan is the Digital Media Specialist at the Beaty Biodiversity Museum.
He has a background in biology and visual arts and currently designs,
illustrates, and produces collaborative content for deployment across
physical and digital platforms.
