Digitization
Newfields - Indianapolis Art Museums
When working at Newfields I assisted the registrar department. I was tasked with digitizing the loan collection from the 1920s. Having to learn how to read cursive and try to find the artwork in the collection.
​
My work included:
-
Assisted with Digitization Initiatives for materials associated with the permanent collection and loans
-
Assisted with registration projects as needed
Museum of Richmond
When working at the Museum of Richmond I was tasked with ditizing the collection. With this being a small institution many of the artifacts were not pictured. Along with cataloging I also photographed the artifacts.
​
My work included:
-
Created social media posts about artifacts that are within the collection by researching the item
-
Redesigned the digitization of the collection through updated pictures and organization of the catalog
-
Greeted all guests entering the museum by explaining the current exhibition and the permanent collection
