Sara Clarke-De Reza, Raven Bishop and Julie Markin were awarded the Hunter Burley Award by the Small Museums Association for the Digital Scholarship in Museum Partnerships (DSMP) project.
The Hunter Burley Award recognizes outstanding contributions to the advancement of professional growth within, and/or the accessibility of information to the small museum community on a regional or state level. Typically awarded to an individual, this is the first time in the award’s history that it has been granted to a team, recognizing the cross-disciplinary, highly-collaborative nature of the DSMP project.
Bishop and Clarke-De Reza and DSMP student intern Hannah Flayhart were honored to accept the award on behalf of the project and the many students, museum and community collaborators who have contributed to this work.
