111th Material Culture Forum: Introductions
Description:
The 111th Material Culture Forum's topic is "The Art and Science of Celestial Navigation Across the Smithsonian Universe." In this segment, Michelle Delaney, Senior Program Officer for History and Culture, Office of the Provost and David Penney, Associate Director, National Museum of the American Indian, provide introductions to the Forum topic and presenters. Since 1988, the Smithsonian Institution Material Culture Forum has been organizing quarterly meetings that offer staff with opportunities to interact with their colleagues in other disciplines, to share information about their fields, to think about different directions in their research, to develop new collaborative projects, or, to just learn. The Forum considers topics from the vast world of objects that the Smithsonian collects, preserves, studies, and presents. The Forum is welcome to all, including members of the outside academic community. This meeting was recorded in the Rasmuson Theater of the National Museum of the American Indian on February 27, 2019.
