"If there’s a world here in a hundred years, it’s going to be saved by tens of millions of little things. The powers-that-be can break up any big thing they want. They can corrupt it or co-opt it from the inside, or they can attack it from the outside. But what are they going to do about 10 million little things? They break up two of them, and three more like them spring up!"
- Pete Seeger, in YES! Magazine

Redesign a museum display

The project:
Develop a plan to turn a static display at our local natural history museum into a seasonal display.

Time:
2 hours (only 90 minutes today)

Why bother?
The girls and I used to sit the museum (that means serve as greeters and tour guides) once a month. When we took off for our long trip, we stepped back from our docent duties. Since returning, we haven't gotten into the regular commitment, but this special project was one that fit our lifestyle.

Worth it?
I hope so. It would be neat to see this exhibit more fully developed, and thereby more fully enjoyed by visitors.
