Hi museum development friends, here's an important reminder from Tabitha King on how NOT to thank your donors:

[Field Museum @FieldMuseum]

Three people work to vacuum the various sections. To reach the very tops of the poles we rent a special indoor cherry-picker lift, one of only a few in the country.

[Yousra Elbagir @YousraElbagir]

My brother was asked to make a donation at the British Museum today and he politely told the lady,"my donation is the Sudan section" 😂

I will be helping the #oneandonly microbe museum @Micropia to give #archaea more spotlight. Please get in touch with ideas, suggestions, material, etc that would be useful for this. Let's spread the word that ARCHAEA RULE! Pls RT.

In case anyone missed this yesterday, my most recent blog for @artstringapp is about faded paint and conservation.

“I don’t know if we know how to separate if we’re feeling pity or if we’re feeling empathy.” The empathizer is the savior and the empathizee is the recipient and those roles never change. It silences the recipient #IxD19

Someone send Marie Kondo to the British Museum, so some of us can get our shit back.

[Rave Sashayed @_sashayed]

ok seriously, u wanna know what brought real tears to my eyes this morning? it's this statue, which is 15 THOUSAND years old. an unthinkably long time ago somebody saw a bison licking his shoulder & was like “lol cute. look at him go. i’m gonna make a little statue about it”

[Lisa Peatfield @LisaPeatfield]

Bravo to @derbymuseums for some refreshing honesty about how objects end up in #museum collections

[Art UK @artukdotorg]

Hi, I’m an arts charity. You may know me from some of my greatest hits, such as “art is actually really important”, “that painting is in copyright” and “there isn’t funding for that”.

I'll be using the Bertrand Russell citation format from now on.

[Glasgow Women's Library - follow us on Bluesky @womenslibrary]

Hello, we're a Women’s Library, Museum and Archive. You may know us from our greatest hits, including: "no, we’re not sexist", "yes, everyone is welcome" and of course our number one hit, "we celebrate the lives, histories and achievements of women”.
