Dear Vanessa,

One thing you might want to take into consideration is that when looking
for your first museum job its really hard to be picky about where you will
go and where you won't go if you want a job right away.  Unfortunately
there are just not enough positions around.  In other words you might find
yourself moving to a new place just to be employed.   Sure you can pick a
place and move there before a job is available, but it could take a few
years to find something.

Subject:  top 5 opinion poll




Greetings list members:

As a graduate of arts & admin about to enter the job force, I am struggling
between the desire to pursue my career full on and making a lifestyle
decision.  To help me with this I wanted to ask what everyone thought were
the top 5 museums in communities of 500,000 or less  and why.  They can be
any kind of museum with any kind of collection.  It might help me focus my
job search - so I really hope everyone shares their opinion!!!

Thanx in advance,

Vanessa
