There's a great website that is sponsored by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for The Pubic Library of Charlotte & Mecklenburg County and the Mint Museum of Art. This site is a collaborative effort to share North Carolina's Craft heritage to children in an entertaining educational presentation. Here's the link. www.handsoncrafts.org Check it out!

In addition to tying in well with their collection, they tie into the curriculum of the Mecklenburg County School system. So, not only can children and their families enjoy these sites but they can also be used in the schools as a part of the curriculum. http://www.mintmuseum.org/mma/index.htm Regina Bacote Director of Visual Arts Arts Council of Wilson 124 E Nash Street Wilson.

I''m especially interested in receiving URLs for museum sites / projects that you think are excellent / inspirational / innovative. It would be great if you could append a short statement (even if only three words) about why. Alternatively, negative examples and general ideas are also welcomed. Thanks for you help.
