2020/09/24

What is a museum? We know it's more than a big building with paintings on walls and objects in cases. But could our own homes be museums about us?

On this episode we revisit our unforgettable conversation with Dr. David Pilgrim, Founder and Curator of the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia at Ferris State University in Michigan.

Letter From Prison (to a cat)

Museum Confidential ·

2020/05/08

Philbrook recently kicked off a pen pal program for the museum cats. A bit of connection in the COVID-19 era. If you write them a letter, they write back. That's the deal. The program took off quickly and mail began arriving daily from around the country and around the world. Some from kids, some from adults. Some silly, some quite moving. Some from other cats (kind of). But one recent arrival stood out. The return address on the envelope was a prison. The letter inside was unforgettable.

In his new book HOW TO BE AN ARTIST, he distills his life into a mission statement of sorts.

The Scientific Method
