We may be deep in the final stretch of getting the Houston Museum ready to reopen, but one thing hasn’t stopped: education!
We recently had the chance to partner with Museum Magnet School to talk about how we curate exhibitions at the Houston Museum. With one of the best school museum programs in the country, Normal Park is doing incredible work connecting students with museums, collections, and ideas — and we loved sharing a little of our own process with them.
When Anna Safley Houston left her collection to the Chattanooga community, she wanted people to learn from the craftsmanship, history, and cultures represented in the objects she so passionately collected.
More than 60 years later, we’re proud to keep that mission going — in our galleries, in our classrooms, and out in the community.
The museum is reopening soon, but our work of learning, sharing, and connecting never stopped. 💙
