While the themes, cultures, and regions covered in our permanent exhibits generally stay consistent from year to year, we do often make small changes.

Professor Emeritus Clark Cunningham, curator of our Southeast Asia and Oceania: "Crossroads" exhibit, visited us to discuss the addition of a new artifact from the Keifer/Lopez collection to the exhibit. Museum staff Melissa Sotelo and Jennifer Grove are seen here working with Professor Cunningham to test the placement of the new textile. In addition to the new textile, we also changed the mounting method for some of the existing textiles to ensure better preservation.
