GW Museum Education Program

Couldn’t have done it without these two! ❤️ We’re grateful for one more semester with our favorite cheerleaders 🎉 #GWCommencement #MuseumsAreNotNeutral @wondercatch

These GW Museum Education Program grad students were my delight this past semester. I’m so proud to see them advocate on Capitol Hill for the important role museums play in our communities. Each + every day they help make the world a better place! @GW_MESA #BeautifulInsideAndOut

@time4qna We adore you Rosette! 💕

In 2021, Senator Warren spoke at GWU's 1st post-pandemic commencement. She encouraged graduates to "get in the fight" to make presense felt in political arena. Here are MEPers readying to advocate for museums on Capitol Hill today! #MuseumsAdvocacy2023 #MuseumsAdvocacy @GW_MESA

Today, over 250 museum advocates are participating in Congressional meetings on Capitol Hill, helping to make the case for museums and sustain the future of our field. Follow along with ➡️ #MuseumsAdvocacy2023!

#MuseumsAdvocacy2023 is wherever you are! Join our cohort to make the case for museums this year. @AAMers has you covered with all the tools you need: bit.ly/AdvAnywhere

We created a LinkedIn group! All former MEPers are encouraged to join! 🎈🌟 linkedin.com/groups/12723169

@MeehanEDU @GWtweets @time4qna It was a pleasure to have you in class!!

I had the incredible opportunity today to join graduate students in the @GW_MESA at George Washington University @GWtweets to lead a master class on motivation and the work of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. Thank you to @time4qna and this incredible cohort of learners!! #EMC2Learning

📢 #MuseumsAdvocacy2022 is here! We're joined by #museum advocates from across the nation to raise our collective voices and speak up for museums, which still face dire impacts from the pandemic, by urging members of Congress to support them in 2022 and beyond.

Prepping for @AAMers Museums Advocacy Day but catching up with some of the prerecorded sessions! From Strategic Storytelling: communicating your museum’s impact - “Data alone doesn’t move us. Sharing information is not the same as crafting a narrative.”

GW will resume in-person classes and activities in support of the university’s academic mission on Tuesday, January 18. University employees should return to their work schedules that were in place prior to the virtual period. Learn more ⬇️ onward.gwu.edu/person-classes…

Happy first day of classes, GW! We’re so excited to be back on campus as we continue to #RaiseHigh together 🤩

As a designer who consults with museums on gender inclusive practice, I am often asked about signage and icons. Here are some of my top recs for easy swaps you can make for a more gender inclusive visitor experience:

Up next, we're sharing tips from the #AAM2021 flash session, "Your Museum Career: Now What? Career Resilience in a Post-COVID Climate." This session will offer insights into job searching after a COVID-19 transition, virtual interviewing, and more.

Sharen Heal from @MuseumsAssoc explains that “without people, museums are just storage warehouses” at #AAM2021 @AAMers

Forgive us for bragging, but check out all we accomplished last semester in our internships! ✨ gwumesa.wordpress.com/2021/06/08/our…

So much goodness during the "60 Ideas in 60 Minutes: Sizzling Ideas in Audience Engagement and Inclusion" session at #AAM2021. Key takeaways: Museums must be anchors in their communities. Engage! Engage! Engage! Action, not loaded statements, speak louder than words.
