This weekend, I went on a creative retreat of sorts, an annual event that I love. Two and a half days of intense time in a community I care about, several hundred friends and strangers in a hotel, being silly and collaborative, telling great stories and sharing what we’ve made. It’s one of the few points of connection I have with how I spent my non-work time before grad school. It’s a convention for Live Action Role-Playing, or LARP, which is a little like what those murder mystery dinner party in a box games would be if they weren’t so often thin and hokey.
The Greater Boston Museum Educators’ Roundtable is sponsoring a professional development event on March 13, 2014, from 1-4pm at Danforth Art.
Join colleagues for a discussion of how best
practices in customer service outside of the
museum field can be used to enhance the visitor
experience when applied cross-departmentally. A
panel including staff members from the Children’s
Museum, the Institute of Contemporary Art, the
Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, and the MIT
Museum will consider the unique relationship
between museums’ Visitor Services and Education
departments and explore the benefits and
challenges of hybrid staff structures. Educators
will leave with a newfound understanding of what
a truly visitor-centered museum can look like and
practical ideas to implement at their own
institutions.
