Experience

Huntington Historical Society

• United States
• Museums, Historical Sites, and Zoos
• 1 - 100 Employee

• Museum Registrar

  • 2009 - Present

  I process antique items that have been donated to the Society. This involves numbering the items, entering related data onto our software program, creating a hard file, sometimes researching the items history. I also take part in conserving the Society's costume collection and work on two or three in house exhibits each year. Exhibits sometimes call for wall murals or historic wigs, which I create as needed. These are the more unique skills I bring to the job. I process antique items that have been donated to the Society.
