@danamuses As I think about this, fun might be the wrong word. I think the fun, jokey stuff has a place, but it might not all be fun. Museums have a knack for turning really interesting info into really boring content. So maybe it’s more “not stodgy” rather than “fun.”
@danamuses Sometimes “fun” content makes a museum seem more relatable. Sometimes it’s cringy. (I’m thinking v generally about memes, lighthearted captions, rating dogs on a scale out of 10, etc.) Fun content can create connection & is so much more accessible than scholarly info.
A true labor of love 💗💗 … I’ve been working on this show for two years and I can’t wait for you to hear it!!

Hey ya’ll! As we support Black companies and creatives and more using #BuyBlack, I want to highlight Black museums who could use our $$$ support because we know now more than ever, we need to invest in the institutions that sustain & educate us on OUR history.

It has been a joy and privilege to work with this program for the past couple years. I might be the “educator,” but I’ve learned more about being in the present moment from these folks than I ever thought I would ✨
I went deep on TikTok, a meme factory based around incredibly complex AI capabilities, whose Chinese parent company is valued at $78 billion & is betting on a future where algorithms will fully govern what we see https://t.co/zCqS3EAwdz

A call to action to do better, based on my observations of the #musesocial community. 💌Also my love letter to all the museum social media managers—current, former, and future.
