Abstract
In this workshop for collections managers, you will build out a step-by-step design plan for a digital exhibit you have in mind. We will work with digital objects you bring to the workshop in real-time, to help you make your desired digital exhibit a reality. While we create our design plans, we’ll discuss best and realistic practices, pitfalls that often occur in exhibit creation, DEIA aspects of these online spaces, capacity planning and sustainability needs, and closing (yes, closing) a digital exhibit out.
