A little bit about how I am using drawing to better understand data as part of my @PersonalisePLY residency, I also really love travelling data points being described as a 'murmuration of starlings', wonderful!

I am so onboard with what @HistoryGonWrong is saying at the #AAM2020annualmeeting about re-prioritizing pay and valuing museums as holders of the public trust!
"Seeing a read aloud set up in a museum is such a familiar thing for young visitors ...in some ways is more successful than preschool tours..."- Gail Goldspiel in "Are They Too Young? How to engage the youngest museum visitors" #NYCMER2020
"There are people from all over the world in New York City and we recognize that diversity and that's what we want people to understand about the diversity of nations and become aware of that instead of using a generic term" -Rick Chavolla #NYCMER2020 really thoughtful insight!
"we had a different title for the exhibition but changed it to 'Urban Indian' out of respect for the people involved who were native because that is what they wanted the exhibit to be called "- Rebecca Jacobs, Collaboration with Native American Community at MCNY #NYCMER2020
About asking native people what they want to be called: "it's best to go to the people from a community, and be as specific as possible. If I don't know, I will just ask" -Pilar Jefferson, Collaboration with Native American Community at MCNY #NYCMER2020
"Looking for nonverbal cues... is not something you learn overnight" great insight from Tour and Talk Role Play session with Jennifer Hochuli and Christine Quigley #NYCMER2020

"artists and educators are essential second responders" @cholerbass interesting idea. What can museum do to support community rebuilding and healing after this pandemic crisis ? #NYCMER2020
Museums in NYC have closed to the public to prevent spread of covid 19. What are they doing in other places? Everyone needs to step up. #disability#covid#coronavirus#coronapocalypse https://t.co/mxzfr2EisN
