The Land and the Archive

​At the Museum of Performance + Design, (San Francisco, California), I designed a guided tour of the archive reimagining the voices of objects in the collection as well as the effect of the San Francisco landscape on the performing arts created there. For this project I combined dramaturgy and storytelling with more traditional modes of museum education in order to create meaningful access to the collection, while incorporating multiple truths about shared history.
