International Museum Day, 2011!

Mme. SEKO, curator for the music museum, works on her exhibit.

In preparation for the upcoming Int'l Museum Day, May 18th, we've been working on setting up an exhibit at the local university. The theme for this year is "Museums and Memory." We'll be offering some plaques about the history of slavery in Benin, the history of music, and the history of tribal communication. Interesting stuff. We're working on preparing an "itinerant exhibit" that we can easily transport to schools and social gatherings to showcase what the museum has to offer.

Mme. SEKO and I hard at work...
