Can you help out with some student research on #musetech #glam digital activity?

[Artsy @artsy]

The findings of the survey, initiated by the American Alliance of Museums, suggest that some 12,000 museums across the U.S. may never reopen. https://t.co/hY73UMukbD

The @tenementmuseum put out this press release about the layoffs with @NY1 today. Let’s talk about all the ways it gets the story wrong. https://t.co/KSVYWNMJc0

[Royal Academy @royalacademy]

Do virtual exhibition tours/videos discourage you from then visiting that exhibition in person?

[Mary Akemon (Museum Masters) @MMastersPodcast]

One of my favorite things is group mania on Twitter - not being able to partcipate is SAD

[Mary Akemon (Museum Masters) @MMastersPodcast]

The wild thing is that Twitter was able to turn off all the blue checks pretty quickly - meaning they probably had code to do so already prepared.

To all the museums eliminating education: have you forgotten already that edu is what grants want to fund and what guests pay for? You're throwing money away because admin thinks edu just plays with crayons all day.

[Art + Museum Transparency @AMTransparency]

So @philamuseum leaders now confirm: they won’t recognize the staff union, doubling down on fighting it using one of the most expensive law firms in the country. How much will be spent on something so shameful? What is the board so afraid a union will bring? Accountability?

[Mary Akemon (Museum Masters) @MMastersPodcast]

Ugh if only

[L. Maren Wood, PhD @drmarenw]

Sometimes the hardest part of a #postac job search can be grappling with what your PhD means to you going forward. I don't use my history PhD now, and that's okay. I've landed in a place that is meaningful to me. But know that it can take time to get there.
