Historical Commission <br />Minutes <br />January 16, 2019 <br />Page 2of5 <br />Jason presented an introductory/orientation panel for the Museum. He received a <br />fellowship from CU and has partnered with the Museum to work on projects like <br />this one. The goal is to help visitors that are less interested in speaking with staff, <br />but need something to ground their experience in the mission and historical <br />coverage. It will be portable. He explained that this would be a first intellectual <br />handhold for visitors coming in to the Museum. <br />Discussion followed on how the title was developed, and some discussion about <br />simplifying the signage. It was suggested to shorten the text and captions and <br />avoid small pictures. Recommendations included changing the title to add "our" to <br />title and advancing the interpretive themes identified in the Master Plan — "We all <br />have a story to tell." Another suggestion was to have brochures printed and shared <br />in local businesses. Good hooks seem to engage and compel visitors to connect. <br />VII.
