Please excuse cross postings. We hope you'll join us for the second annual Museum-Ed Online Conference on writing, February 25 and 26, 2009. We are very excited about our conference sessions: on Wednesday, February 25 I'll kick things off with a session on writing for technology (if there's anything specific you'd like me to address now is the time to speak up), followed by writing for audio tours by a former Antenna Audio writer, and then a session on writing for cell phone audio tours, which we think can be quite different from standard audio tours.
On Thursday, February 26 Philip Yenawine will take a journalistic slant toward writing for adult visitors, followed by a session on writing with children in museum galleries, and we'll close with a session on grant writing for museum educators! Take a look at the program descriptions (http://www.learningtimes.net/museumed/program.html) Registration is open and available online at the conference site. Last year, several museums registered one staff member and broadcast the conference sessions for all education at the museum, so consider that option as well. Please send all questions or comments to me. Hope to "see" you at the conference!
All Best,
Kris Wetterlund
