other duties as assigned

My boss is off at a conference. She emailed me asking me to go into the museum proper, visit the gift stores and price all of the pens and pencils with the Academy logo on them. I'm a visual person, so instead of a list, I sent her this image from my sketchbook. :)

Exhibits and an invitation

I have been hard at work on several exhibits lately. Two are done and one is in the works. 

Above & below I am working with Mollie Cueva-Dubkowski, a Careers in Science Intern at CAS, to create an exhibit in the Library Reading Room on Ecuador. Mollie is a fabulous writer (as evidenced by this blog) and her exhibit is fascinating to look at AND educational. There will be another blog post (it's in the works now) with more images, as the Reading Room is not open to the public without an appointment.

Also, this past Monday, myself and a number of wonderful volunteers, hung the Nature's Jewels show at t he Tilden Environmental Education Center. pics below!
