Museum Insider is a series of moderated discussions about the inner-workings of NHMU. Hear from select NHMU staff about how our Museum works, and how it changes over time. Tune in to each discussion to hear from a different in-house expert on what we hold within our walls, how we choose what to show the public, and how we make changes to keep everything up to date. Discussions are held on the 3rd Wednesdays of April and August in the evening. Attending a Museum Insider Discussion can be counted as volunteer service hours under the "Continuing Education" assignment.
Check this page for information about upcoming Museum Insider Discussions, and see and see an archive of past discussions.
