💡 CE: Reaching an Audience Where They Are
November 5 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Description: Do you do tabling at events? Or take programs out to different facilities, organizations, or sites? Then you are involved in what we know as outreach, which can range from informational to interpretive. Learn how to create opportunities for informal or spontaneous interpretation. We’ll also discuss design for signage, pop-up exhibits, and tables as well as incorporating hands-on and minds-on activities to captivate your audience and inspire them to seek more from your organization.
