Week 36 at The Mayem A. Clayton Library & Museum

Last week the Otis College of Art & Design Layin it Low exhibit was a huge success! The students came to MCLM to view their  works and mingle. The pieces are still on display in the museum, anyone that views the exhibit can walk away with a Layin' it Low magazine and key chain. which are currently on display.  All of the items are to be donated to the collection. 

C. Jerome Woods is local collector whose LGBT collection is on deposit at MCLM.  Last week, he came to the museum to pull some items for a 23 panel exhibition that occurs this summer at the One Institute and Archives. The ONE is the National Gay & Lesbian Archives located in Los Angeles, CA.

I completed my  disaster preparedness workshop that  is funded through the National Endowment for the Humanities and is given by WESTPAS,The Western States Preservation Association. During this workshop I learned how to take basic preservation measures in the case of a flood, fire or earthquake.
