American Perceptionalism examines how museums are reinventing themselves in a changing world. It engages with the most important issues facing museums – exhibit development, virtual experiences, community engagement and co-creation, diversity and inclusion, research and evaluation, and more.
My name is Isabel Singer (she/her pronouns) and I am a proud museum person! I am an exhibit developer living with my partner in Chicago. I work at the experience design firm Luci Creative and I’m the Chairperson of the Chicago Museum Exhibitors Group Steering Committee. I have an MPhil from the University of Cambridge and a B.A. from Yale University, both in history. In addition to writing this blog, I spend my free time hosting Shabbat dinners for my friends from synagogue, reading Afrofuturist novels, and searching for (and failing to find) satisfying Queer representation on television.
The blog has a slight Chicago bent, since that’s where I’m located. It features expert perspectives from Chicagoland museum professionals and reviews of exhibits housed in Chicago’s many incredible institutions.
Connect with me on Linkedin – I’m always looking to meet more awesome museum professionals.
