Internship: Neville Public Museum

This blog will act as my means to record my experiences at the Neville Public Museum. I will be working as an Intern there from January until May of 2008 to satisfy my requirments through the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay as well as my own academic development as this will allow me to work outside of the classroom. I will post a brief summary of my activities after each day of work and use this to reflect on my experiences.

Day 39

Today I was back in Conservation working on the flag. I had finished a strip of velcro on what I thought was Muslin. It turned out to be an elastic mesh netting, which is actually what I buy at the homebrew store and they call it muslin. I had to start over since the weight of the flag will stretch the material and not give a good bond. It didnt take me too long to finish the same strip again, this time on actual Muslin. I finished both srtips and began to sew it directly on the flag. I should finish it tomorrow and be able to hang it in teh WWI exhibit.
