The two biggest  and best regarded groups in the country that train and test
their members for appraisal methodology are the International Society of
Appraisers and the American Society of Appraisers.  Both have web sites.
The International Society is composed of the "art, residential contents,
weird old stuff, jewelry and machinery/equipment" experts and their group
focuses on this type of material in specialty courses.  The American Society
of Appraisers includes business valuation and real estate experts.

> Subject: CPB Grant for American History and Civics Content
>
> The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has recently launched the American
> History and Civics Initiative "to address critical shortfalls in middle
and
> high school students' knowledge of American history, our political system,
> and their roles as citizens."
>
> This initiative will award $20 million in grants to "forge unique and
> sustainable partnerships between public television producers and broadcast
> outlets, the educational community, curriculum developers, the high tech
> industry and other appropriate partners, to design, test and create
> integrated interactive multimedia platforms that improve learning."
>
> For information on the initiative and the RFP, go here:
> http://www.cpb.org/grants/historyandcivics/
>
> I know a high tech company and television producer in Los Angeles looking
> for partners in submitting a proposal. If your organization is interested
in
> applying for the grant and need partners, let me know and I'll give you
the
> contact information.
>
> I have personally seen this sort of effort work out very well for all
> involved. The American Film Institute has a Digital Content Lab which
> "incubates new forms of entertainment programming on digital platforms
from
> idea to audience" by pairing "design and technology experts with
> professionals from TV, film, games and an array of programming initiators
in
> an R&D environment to adapt new and existing concepts to digital creation
> and distribution."
>
> Every July AFI rolls out the results of the teams for that year and
> announces the teams for the next year. I've attended the presentation
twice
> and it's very impressive. Long-time sponsors include Microsoft, Intel,
> and... CPB. I'm guessing the idea for the American History and Civics
> Initiative was germinated in the rich experiences of the AFI Digital
Content
> Lab. Info here: http://www.afi.com/education/dcl/
>
> I wish our museum was in a position to develop a proposal, but we're not.
> I'm hoping the info falls in the hands of another organization who is able
> to seize the opportunity.

discusion, which I have been enjoying I might add.</DIV>
> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
> <DIV>1. The exhibition was not at the Gettysburg National Battlefield
(pardon me if I got that name wrong) but at an art at Gettysburg College
which is near the Battlefield, but not part of it. That may or may not make
a difference to any of you, but if we speak about the appropriateness of
certain exhibitions at certain venues, the correct venue should be
identified. It also looks like a private college from a quick glance at
their website. Does this matter? That would be part of this discussion,
no?</DIV>
> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
> <DIV>2. From the link provided earlier in this thread, this exhibition is
long closed. Many comments seem to reflect the belief that the exhibition
opens next month or at least in the future. According to the link <A
href="http://www.gettysburg.edu/academics/visual_arts/art/04-05Calendar.htm"
>http://www.gettysburg.edu/academics/visual_arts/art/04-05Calendar.htm</A>&n
bsp;this exhibition opened and closed in September of 2004. Unless the run
got extended or it traveled, it is all gone. I would be interested to hear
if anyone knows how the whole thing turned out in the end.</DIV>

> <DIV>I found Carol Ely's message to be very well said, and I agree
whole-heartedly.&nbsp; But I can't help but add my two cents with the desire
to turn the discussion toward museological issues.</DIV>
> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
> <DIV>As pointed out by several authors, it is difficult for the 21st
Century paradigm to digest the level of state allegience proclaimed by 19th
Century soldiers, particularly in the South.&nbsp; The fact that we now
self-identify as Americans first, and Texans or New Yorkers second, is
largely a result of the Civil War.&nbsp; Gettysburg stands in sobering
testimony to that reality, for both sides.&nbsp; It is hallowed
ground.</DIV>
> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
> <DIV>I am not defending either position.&nbsp; Rather, to suggest, as has
been pointed out, that the Civil War was an <EM>American</EM> trajedy, not
just a division between the North and the South.&nbsp; As such, it seems
somewhat unfair to choose sides at a <EM>national</EM> battlefield.&nbsp;
For me, the biggest issue here comes to one of chosen venue for the
exhibition.&nbsp; </DIV>
> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
> <DIV>I recognize the value in on-site exhibits, such as Wounded Knee and
Auschwitz, among many.&nbsp; And I won't comment on the artistic value of
the work in question,&nbsp;although certainly it deserved an
audience.&nbsp;&nbsp;Just look at all of the dialogue it has inspired
here.&nbsp; But I think a more sensitive institution would have moved the
exhibit down the street a ways.&nbsp; Maybe nobody would have fussed much
then.&nbsp; </DIV>

respect and dignity.</DIV>

companies before, curious to see what reaction this gets.  With the growth
of personal digital music players, blogging, podcasting, etc.  I curious
about whether we'll see more of this kind of "unofficial" audio guides to
our collections.

tours aren't completely honest with you. They can't very well say things
like "critics think this work is terrifically overrated, but we keep it on
the wall because we sell a thousand posters of it a day," or "we know this
sketch looks profoundly boring, but here's why it's the most interesting
thing you'll see all day," or "we only hang this painting here because old
Mrs. Dimbledumble wouldn't have donated the new East Wing otherwise...."

> Subject: Decision Making Responsibilities of Board Committtees
>
> Hello all! I am in need of some serious advice. I am going to be specific
> about my question rather than general--and most of you will agree that
this
> is a sticky situation. I am the Director of a new children's museum in
Ohio.
> We opened last August and I started in September. Our Board, until that
> time, was extremely hands-on. Many were personally involved in the
> development of the museum. After I was hired, they took a more formal
role.
> Actually, it was not until November when they developed board committtees.
> From November on, many of the committtees have been fairly active, but
none
> as active as the Marketing Committee. They have had a tall order and have
> done their job well, making great decisions that for the most part, the
> Board has supported. In April the Board voted to approve a new
> organizational logo. In June, the Marketing Committee reported that it
would
> run a logo naming contest locally for children. Our Marketing Chair, who
is
> in management at a local television station, helped us by developing PSAs
> for their station and others. A local parenting magazine gave us a half
page
> ad in their publication for free (they were going to be promoted in the
> PSA.)  Needless to say, the deal was great because this magazine has given
> us 6 months free for the publicity they got. This past week, the committee
> reviewed close to 100 names. The editor of the magazine (who has since
> joined our committee as she has great knowledge of family audiences in the
> area), artist who created the logo, and our extremely talented committee
> found a name they liked. We called the young lady, gave her her prizes,
and
> in August the winner's name will appear in our ad that the magazine
created
> for us (and as a special gift is giving us in color at no charge.) We've
> also asked her to appear at our one-year anniversary during a
presentation.
> This morning, I read an email (sent to the entire Board) from my Board
Chair
> that the name is something the entire board should vote on, and that the
> Committee needs to make a recommendation. Umm, it seems what is done is
> done. My Marketing Chair sent her an email back, and later called her to
say
> that no one raised any concern at the June Board meeting when we mentioned
> the contest, and it concerns him that the Board is micromanaging the
> committees. She has asked him to draft an argument to the Board of
Trustees
> and have them decide if we should give naming responsibilities to the
Board.
> This minor argument has bloomed into an ugly situation. I am trying to
stay
> on the outside of it, obviously. While our bylaws state that the
committtees
> cannot commit the museum to "any program" it seems to me that this is
> micromanagement. The problem here lies in the fact that we are still very
> new, these are growing pains, and the Board has never really developed
> policy regarding the decision making responsibilities of the committees.
Am
> I blowing this way out of proportion? Do your board committees have some
> decision making authority? Please let me know. It seems to me that if the
> Board will have to decide on every little "recommendation" the committees
> make then not only will they micromanage, but our monthly meetings will
> become three-hours long. Any thoughts? Any words of comfort? Am I
> overreacting? I feel that this could get us into serious trouble with the
> family of the winner, the parent magazine, and my wonderful marketing
> committee. Thanks.
