It is so important to continue creating these opportunities for young adults to engage in museum spaces. What especially inspires me personally is the archival area of museums, where histories of people are kept. Not only is the work that these students did important in preserving the memory and knowledge of generations before us, they are engaging in this practice in such interesting ways that I had never thought of. Rodi’s research into the lives and actual names of the sitters particularly interested me, because it modernizes these archives in a way which does not erase any part of them, but actually enhances the knowledge we can gain from them. Everytime I learn about another job or area of research in a museum, I am amazed by the range of possibilities. It seems as though there is an area of history for every single interest, and to get to dive into a field through museum archives sounds like such an enriching experience.
