For over 100 years we have provided real-life models and frameworks for audiences to experience the world beyond what they see every day and even beyond what they can imagine. Learn more about how we super charge the 'spark to fuel' cycle that starts in our museum but then enhances life after a visit. Explore the concentric circles of our 'why'- starting with our beloved visitors- and discover how we are part of a larger ecosystem of learning and imagination that drives intrinsic motivation and builds confidence. We'll also consider what the cycle will look like in the future and share what we are doing now to propel us forward into the 2nd Century. Jer will also share real-life examples of the 'spark to fuel' cycle in action over her almost 34-year career.
