Can’t Touch This: Voices from the Basement Part 2

This summer we asked our summer interns to team up and create their very own podcast episodes. Over the course of ten weeks they needed to pitch a concept, draft a script, and record and edit their podcasts. We’re going to share those podcasts here with you on the blog over the course of the next few weeks! You can see all of their podcasts by clicking on the intern podcast tag.


This is the second episode created by collections interns Joelle Paull and Amy Swartz to focus on the care and handling of museum collections. In this episode they mention some of the dangers of collections inventory and give us an in-depth “look” at a  special framed poster. Missed their first episode? You can listen to it here.
